They can take the test after receiving authorisation on E.Gulbis Laboratory’s website.

For this, customers must log in, confirm their identity and make the payment online.

After making the payment, they will receive a PIN code by phone and e-mail.

By following the simple instructions on the machine, the customers will then be required to give a sample of their saliva.

The airport informed that the results will not be sent immediately, therefore departing passengers are required to plan their test accordingly.

The test results will be sent by E.Gulbis Laboratory over e-mail.

According to information on the E.Gulbis Laboratory website, the saliva test is accepted as an official test for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 virus RNA in Latvia.

However, a negative test result will not eliminate the need to observe ten days of self-isolation and other constraints set in Latvia to curb the spread of coronavirus infection.
