TERMS & CONDITIONS

You agree that by using the Rapid Covid-19 testing services you agree to and accept these Conditions of Use. These Conditions of Use will prevail over any other terms and conditions provided to you in relation to the test.  

PCR TESTS

The PCR testing service available at the Covid-19 rapid testing facility is the YOCON Virus Sample Kit – Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Test.

PCR testing for COVID-19 is intended to identify infected persons. PCR testing is performed to identify persons who may be contagious so that measures can be taken to prevent further transmission.

For tests taken in advance of flight departures we aim to provide results within 24 hours.

• A test taken after 1400 hrs will lead to a minimum of 24hrs for a result and certificate to be released. 
• A test taken before 1200 hrs will lead to a same day result and certificate.

These results timescales are not guaranteed and we do not accept any liability for any costs you may incur as a result of a delayed test result.

LFT TESTS

The LFT testing service available at the Covid-19 rapid testing facility is the ALLTEST SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test (nasopharynx lateral flow diffusion test).

LFT testing for COVID-19 is intended to identify infected persons. LFT testing is performed to identify persons who may be contagious so that measures can be taken to prevent further transmission.

REFUND POLICY

Please email your cancellation request to airport@mms.gi Please note, we can only process refund requests submitted via email, not by phone, so please do not call us. Your reason for cancellation will not affect your right to cancel the order. Our team will then process your request for you upon receipt.  Please note that refunds will not be given 60 days after payment of tests.

THE TESTS & SAMPLING METHOD

Collecting the Oronasopharyngeal Swabbing sample will take approximately 3 minutes and will require one of our trained staff taking a sample from your mouth and nose. The purpose of the test is to pick up the presence of the actual virus.  

A positive result indicates that the test has detected the presence of Covid-19 virus. A negative result means that the test has not detected evidence of the Covid-19 virus. Testing is a biological process involving significant complexity and variability, and consequently no testing regime for Covid-19 is 100% accurate in all cases. A negative result does not guarantee that the test subject is free of the Covid-19 virus, nor does a positive result guarantee that the test subject has active, infectious Covid-19. All testing is conducted on this basis.

Test results and any comments given by us on the results are for information only. They are not a clinical diagnosis. They are not a replacement for a full and proper medical investigation and/or a doctor’s advice. Our comments are based solely on the results in relation to what are considered normal ranges in the general population. If you have any concerns at all regarding any aspect of your health or your test results you should discuss them directly with your GP or a doctor.

Please note you are solely responsible for determining that the test you are taking is suitable for your particular requirements, including whether any particular test satisfies the standards you are seeking to meet (whether for entry into any particular international destination etc).  

Whilst at the test facility you agree to abide by the rules and policies implemented by the test facility staff. We reserve the right to withdraw our services if 1) you do not conduct yourself in a reasonable manner, 2) you do not abide by the rules and policies or 3) if you fail to comply with the reasonable instructions of our test centre staff. You are responsible for ensuring you book a suitable slot and you arrive with enough time for the testing process to be completed in order for you to be able to check in for your flight on time. We would advise that if you are a departing passenger you undertake your test 48 hours before your flight.

All of the information you provide us with, we are required to share with Public Health Gibraltar, Civil Contingencies and the Gibraltar Health Authority including not limited to your personal information (e.g. name and date of birth); the result, whether negative or positive. This information may be used as part of any test and trace service being operated by the government in Gibraltar or any other jurisdiction.
