Read the link to Antogen tests thank you
But for UK return where do you get a PCR test
If you use an NHS PCR test to try to exit the UK you will not be allowed to exit you have to pay for a private test
So the question is where East side or central Kyrenia how do you get a test

Suat Gunsel Hospital (behind Metropol Supermarket) or Erduran Lab near Bellapais lights on Bellapais Road behind Lemar Supermarket. Prices 120-200TL. If you Google them you can find out about prices and turn around time.

Is there a PCR test station that gives a valid printed result further West than Girne? I live near Guzelyurt and it’s an
hour of white knuckle driving to get to either of those places.

If you look at the Lapta belidere website it will tell you where and when the PCR tests are being done, get the results via goveronment web site and print at home.
Or go onto the government website and apply for a PCR test at a private clinic near you. It is free.

So you are saying that the Lapta test print out is accepted at the border and Larnaca airport? Not what others are telling me

Do the government website and apply for the private lab near you, that definitely prints out.

fwiw my understanding / experience to date is that the free pcr test done by lapta bele does not have a pdf download option for print out and thus is not good for crossing to south but the free antigen tests done at assigned private labs via the government website do. Hope this is of some help.
My wife gets the normal pcr tests for working at lambousa market and tulips shop, as required but these did not provide a pdf download option via the results website. For going south they obtained an antigen test via the government website that then assigns you a specific private lab to use and these do give a pdf print out option on the results website that can be used to cross to south.
