COVID-19 Tests

What you need to know about COVID-19 testing

From 1 December 2020, in Singapore, you are able to get tested for COVID-19 with the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Swab Test without requiring prior approval or proof of travel*. You will also be able to take other tests including COVID-19 Serology (IgM) Test.
