Hi,
I am traveling from U.S. to Italy in 2 weeks and thought I had this figured out. I bought the Abbott Binax Now antigen test. But now as. Am reading more and now it seems I need the Abbott Binax Now AG Card test? Can someone please confirm the exact name of the Abbott Binax Now test for me?
Thanks!
Here's an article on tests for international travel that the points guy did. You can take a look at the picture for the one needed. It's not available at pharmacies. Need to order thru emed or optum
It’s this one. As far as I know it’s only sold online at optum and emed store, maybe other online places. I linked the optim store 2 pack of tests but there’s also a pack of 6 sold on emed.
It has to say something about telehealth or proctors. Otherwise it’s just a self test with no verification.

Luckily they ship really quick!
Thanks for the information. I just ordered them. Another question: my adult daughter and I will both be testing. Does eMed need her email address to send her test results? How will she get her test results?
Each of you will need to set up your own account. When she tests, she will test under her account and the results will be emailed to her.
Thanks for the information!!
Make sure you both set up your accounts before you leave the U.S.
Yes.
You and your daughter need to download the NAVICA app to your own device and create an account. You have to do this in the US - the app is not available internationally. You can do that now or anytime before you leave but don’t forget!
In the case of one person not having a device or otherwise being unable you can create a “managed profile” in your account. If you do that the email goes to you, with the other persons results. And their results are available in your app, too. I did this for my children but I think it could be for anyone.
Very helpful. Thanks everyone!
@ Mira - and just so people who forget to download the App at home - I downloaded the App today from here in Spain. Was successful on both an iPhone and and Android.
I suppose it depends on what country. My husband forgot to download the Navica app and we weren't able to in Portugal.
