Where to get a Covid test in Portugal:

In the public areas of Lisbon, Faro, Oporto and Madeira airports there are Synlab laboratories that allow RT-PCR and antigen testing.

Since some countries require the presentation of (rapid) antigen testing before flight, test areas at airports give priority to passengers travelling to these destinations.

​

You can perform tests at the following locations:

 

Lisbon Airport:

Public Area: Synlab Laboratory (next to CTT) - from 6:00 am - 10:00 pm

Public Area: P1 car park – from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm

Public Area: UCS Laboratory (next to Premium TAP) - from 6:00 am - 10:00 pm

For transferring passengers: Gate 24 - from 8:00 am to 11:00 am (only for passengers on connection)

 

Faro Airport:

Public Area: next to airline counters in the check-in area

 

Porto Airport:

Public Area: Level 3, near the check-in area

 

Madeira Airport:

Public Area: Level 1, next to ANA information desk

 

The need to present an RT-PCR test for COVID-19 and/or antigen (rapid) test with a negative result depends on the destination, so you should check official websites for further information, such as ANAC or IATA Travel Centre, or with the airline, travel agency and/or official entities. You can find here the list of laboratories recommended by the Portugal’s Directorate-General of Health (DGS).
