What you'll need
When you collect your free COVID-19 tests, you'll need to tell the pharmacy your:
- name
- address
- date of birth
- medical condition
If you've been sent a letter or email from the NHS about COVID-19 treatments, you should show this at the pharmacy to help confirm your eligibility.
Anyone collecting COVID-19 tests on your behalf will also need to give their name and address.
