Hello and good evening, my Son who works in Brazil is flying into Alicante with his family for the summer, what he needs to know is where can he go for a PCR test so he can fly into Amsterdam and then onwards into Brazil. Can he be tested at Alicante airport???

Any advice would really help him. Thanky

Hi

How lovely that your Son and Family will be able to visit 😃 

Imed hospital at Torrevieja (by the Haberneras and Cinema) carries out the PCR test (as well as the Antigen should this be accepted at the destination country)

PCR around €110 and Antigen €40 

I believe Quiron hospital also carries out the test for around €100

Hope this helps and enjoy your family time.

Hi, I have just joined this site and was due to fly tomorrow. I have since found out that a PCR test is now required 48hrs after arrival,  are you given some instruction with documentation and how is this result checked up on to ensure you have had the test and do you have to isolate for the 48hrs before you get the test? Sorry for so many questions but almost feel like cancelling our flights, its been over a year since we stayed in our holiday home but with all this hassle I'm beginning to wonder is it worth it.

Thanks in advance

Hi there, I live in Holland and have just returned from Alicante(29june), Holland needed us  to have an Antigen test 24 hrs before arriving. If you are only changing flights at the airport then that is all you need as it covers connecting flights , as the oerson above said IMED at Habaneras is quick, book easily online. 

Tou dont need to test in Spain after arriving, you have to he tested before you arrive in Spain, also we had to fill in a health form on spanish gov website and download QR code to show on arrival, maybe that has changed in the last few days though.
