The facility ensures a safe journey of all passengers entering the city, scheduled for domestic connecting flights or international departing passengers.

Hyderabad: The GMR Hyderabad International Airport Limited (GHIAL) on Monday started an on-site coronavirus testing laboratory at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA).

The facility ensures a safe journey of all passengers entering the city, scheduled for domestic connecting flights or international departing passengers. As per the government mandate, international passengers on arrival have to carry their RT-PCR negative report, conducted within 96 hours before departures from the origin country.

This report has to be furnished to the State government officials deputed at the airport to avoid institutional quarantine. However, with the RT-PCR testing facility available at the RGIA, passengers now can also get themselves tested once they land in Hyderabad.

As per regulations, all arriving international passengers having onward connections need to have a negative RT-PCR test certificate done within 96 hours prior to the departure time either from port of origin or test done on arrival at the RGIA to avoid institutional quarantine.

The GHIAL has collaborated with Mapmygenome to provide the services for testing Covid-19 samples round-the-clock. Apart from on-site testing facility for passengers, the lab also offers walk-in options for airport personnel or anyone interested in getting a test done. Passengers will have to provide details such as name, contact details and valid ID proof while registering for this facility and results of samples will be declared within four hours.
