Day 2 Covid Test

Hello! Looking for information on the Day 2 Test needed for vaccinated Americans arriving in England. How does the process work? Do we go to a clinic? If yes, do we need to get something scheduled before we leave US? How best to select a test provider? We'll be staying at an airbnb.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Someone will better point you in the right direction for your test options if you say which city in England you are planning to be in.

You need to have booked and paid for the day 2 test before you fly.

There are numerous providers. Where are you staying?

Thank you! We’re staying at a Sheraton. We’re going to have test kits delivered to the hotel upon our arrival. Does this sound right?

As previous people have said the test needs to be organised and paid for before you leave for the UK as you will need to put the booking ref on the locator form. It needs to be arranged with one of the approved providers on the link that Frank provided. You can use an at home kit sent to an address or you can attend a clinic. The kits we ordered recently arrived within a day or so of ordering so you may need to alert the owner of the Airbnb. Make sure, whichever you choose, that you have the means to either return the kit via a drop box or attend the clinic as they may be a distance from your Airbnb.
