We are going through residency process, just waiting for fingerprints checks, so not quite a resident yet! We have our S1 forms but not registered with GO yet. Can we get Covid tests, if so how and where?

Hello

I think Kelvin1960 is right & private hospital/clinic is the only way to go. Until your S1 is accepted & registered with the INSS you are not on the spanish health system. Once you have the form they give you, and have been given your SIP card at your local Centro Salud you are on the system & good to go with health requirements. I still dont know if that allows you to get a Covid test at the clinic

 ,unless you have a valid reason.

Cheers
