COVID-19 Traveling Restriction Update

Written by OT&P Healthcare | January 6, 2023

Latest Update: 19/1/2023

Many countries now require a negative monitored RAT test or a PCR test before travelling. To assist with our patients that are looking to travel during the Chinese New Year, we have compiled a list of countries that currently have requirements for Mainland China and Hong Kong.

We can also provide assistance to travellers that need supervised RAT or PCR Tests in our Central clinics for those that are in need. All tests performed at OT&P are fully accredited for international travel.

Supervised RAT (with Travel Certificate) $500
Supervised RAT + Doctor Consultation $1,050
PCR Test (12 hr/24 hr/48 hr turnaround time)* $1,650/1,300/800
Bespoke Concierge COVID-19 Testing Service Enquire for more information via WhatsApp or call 2824-9112 

Note: The above services are based on our Central clinics.
* PCR testing does not include doctor consultation.

You can book with us via the booking form or through the appointment hotline (tel: 2155 9055). If you will like to do a supervised RAT or PCR test in our Clearwater Bay or Repulse Bay clinic, further arrangements can be made.
