How can I get a pre-departure swab test for travel purposes?


For pre-departure swab test appointments from 1st Dec 2020 onwards, Government approval is no longer required.

Please note that it is your responsibility to make a prior appointment at the clinic to take the COVID-19 test that will meet the requirements set out by your destination country, before your departure. Please set aside sufficient time to complete the test, as the authorities and staff at the clinic will not be able to expedite appointments for tests nor test results.

After sending us your required details, we will get back to you as soon as possible and advise you on the best appointment date and time for your pre-departure swab test.

All COVID-19 tests conducted for pre-departure purposes will have to be paid for by the traveler:

  • COVID-19 PCR Swab Test with issuance of notarised memo for travel - $120 nett

  • Covid-19 N Protein Antibody Test - $45 nett

  • COVID-19 IgM Serology (Antibody) Test - $45 nett

  • COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test with issuance of notarised memo for travel - $35 nett


What are digital HealthCerts and why must I authenticate it for travel?


From 10 March 2021 onwards, MOH has mandated that all Pre-Departure Test (PDT) results be issued in the form of a digital certificate compliant with the HealthCerts schema and standards.

All outbound travellers taking their PDTs in Singapore will receive a digital results certificate, and are required to digitally authenticate and endorse it via www.notarise.gov.sg before travel. This ensures that the result and certificate is issued and authenticated by MOH (i.e. it is issued by an approved clinic/lab and has not been tampered with).

After using www.notarise.gov.sg, the QR code of your digitally authenticated and endorsed test certificate will be e-mailed to you within 15 minutes. If you have presented your NRIC at the clinic, the QR code will also be automatically uploaded onto your SingPass mobile app. The QR code can be shown to foreign immigration & customs authorities, who may scan the QR code with any reader (e.g. normal phone camera) to verify the authenticity of the digital certificate.

You do not need to notarise your document should it already be authenticated on your behalf by the HealthCert provider.
