Yes antigen test is accepted, you will get a certificate with results. The pharmacy does the lateral test and is not accepted. So you will need the antigen test 48 hours before you fly. Book with a local private medical center and costs about 30€ per person. Hope this helps

We fly back in August and have been told that the antigen test with valid certificate is totally acceptable to fly to the UK.  Contacted the medical centre on A and they said just book an appointment and the cost is 40 euro

BTW, don't forget to order your required PCR test to take when back in the UK as you should then receive a code that is required on your form that is needed to return to UK

Many thanks  I read you had to have day 2 and day 8 test in UK but how does this work if you are only going for a week ? Regulations gets confusing
