Attending the clinic
You should contact one of the approved clinics to book an appointment and make it clear you need the test for a UK visa application.
You can expect to get an appointment within a few days of your request. At busy times you may have to wait 10 days for an appointment, especially during the UK student visa peak season between June and September.
The certificate will be issued by the clinic only if you meet the health requirements of the Home Office.
What you should bring with you
- proof of identification, which contains your photograph, such as your passport
- the TB test fee
- if you have had TB in the past or have any other lung disease, you should provide details of your previous screening and, if possible, your medical notes and x-ray results
If you are travelling to the Avis Med in Novosibirsk, please also bring:
- a photocopy of your identification
- 1 colour photo 35x45 mm
Test fees
The fee for TB screening is set by the clinic. You will pay the clinic directly for the cost of your TB test. The cost of the test is in addition to the visa application fee.
The test fee does not cover treatment if you have TB.
