The Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA), has reduced the prices for Covid-19 testing for residents and visitors in Abu Dhabi.
According to SEHA, the price for a Covid-19 test is now Dhs 85. The new cost of these tests has already been taken in to effect.
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) nose swab tests were originally priced at Dhs 370 but were reduced to Dhs 250 in September.
The cost of the nose swab test was further brought down to Dhs 150 in October. The test results are sent to the customers within 24 hours.
Citizens and residents of the UAE must enter the emirate within 48 hours on receiving a negative result on the Covid-19 test. If the individual decides on staying in the emirate for more than eight days, they will have to get tested on the fourth as well as on the eighth day of their stay. Fines will be issued for the individuals that do not follow the issued guidelines.
