Covid tests at Some (Civitavecchia).

[HallidayScotland]

We received an email today for our cruise of 23/7 detailing that we need to "present" a negative antigen test on arrival at the port before boarding. Is there a specific way to do this?...do we show a test we have done ourselves?, does it need to be done by a lab, a clinic or what??....there appears to be no info on this at all that we can see.

 

Any help appreciated!!

This should say ROME.....but I'm sure you realised that...

It has to be an observed test - from a lab or clinic, or an at home test with a purchased observation.

Can be PCR or antigen (lateral flow)

Look for the Healthy at Sea protocols for Rome departures

I think you will find that you cannot do the test yourself but it has to be done by someone or if you do a DIY test then you have to send the details via your phone to get the certificate.

If you are from the UK Lloyds Pharmacy and Boots do them ours cost £29.98 and was done and the certificate issued within 15 minutes.

If you have Lloyd's pharmacies in Scotland then they come recommended.  Had ours at a local one this morning, booked on line,  they do the test, fifteen minutes and they provide a certificate,  then you pay, only £29 as well. 

 

Hope this helps.

Have been through all of this for our cruise 24th June / Rome / Reflection

 

You are travelling on Sat the 23rd so you can do your test anytime on Thursday  21st 

 

Boots only do them at a few big branches and the majority of these tests are done on line . The test is posted to you in advance and you book a time to connect with them via Zoom or Microsoft Teams. You are them observed taking the test and the result . The certificate is then emailed to you .

 

My daughter in law recently had to travel to USA to a Conference and used this one which we have booked
