Some easy solutions for UK residents and others, trying to comply with the new requirement to test before flying.
1) Buy before travel from SimplyTestMe - £15 and £19 options depending on postal service. So long as you are a week or so before departure you will get a standard LFD through the post. Photo upload.
2) Testing For All - similar but with video supervision (not expected to be a requirement here) - £29
3) Obtain Lateral Flow pack whereever you are - in Europe they typically costs €1 or €2 each and are available from newspaper kiosks, pharmacies, supermarkets. Some places they are free. Then use
Klarity to get a certificate after uploading a photo.
For 1 and 3, as soon as you have paid for your order then you get access to the mechanism to upload the test result. For 2 then there is a booking system involved.
You are not allowed to use NHS LFDs for these purposes but the NHST&T FlowFlex tests are now identical to the kits used in 1, 2 and 3, so this aspect is, in my view, unenforceable. The certificate producers in 1,2 and 3 cannot distinguish between their own kits and the NHS ones.
