david_je Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I need a PCR-RT test and need to get along with the report an independent certification that the lab is ISO 15189 qualified. This required for entry to Hong Kong. Has anyone found a good, affordable, convenient place to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to test report, did they provide a separate certification from outside agency or gov't that their lab is ISO 15189? I need that separate certification. Thanks.

Enzian Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Surely people don't wait till 3 days before their flight to get a one and only test. I'm just now deciding whether to leave LOS, and it seems the FIRST thing to do is get a test to make sure I'm not asymptomatic, and then start all the planning and airline booking, hoping that the pre-flight test will not be different.

Comments? Ｗhen you get covid, you will usually only test positive for about 7 days, then you are better and will test negative. No reason to get a test far in advance. Even if you had covid before booking you would likely be over it by the time you take your preflight test. Most airline tickets are changeable or refundable for free these days anyway.

They use AFRIMS lab across the street, and I got attached from either Travel Clinic or AFRIMS website. Note that it has expired accreditation date, but I did present it to airline with the Ministry of Public Health document linked in mtls's post above, and the Travel Clinic test certificate (I had the clinic write on the certificate that they use the AFRIMS lab). I flew Cathay Pacific and at that time, August 2021, just the Ministry document was sufficient actually. ISO AFRIMS.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
