Where can I get an HIV test?
Testing services for HIV are available free of charge at all government health centres on a walk-in basis. You do not need to make an appointment.
The actual testing process usually takes one and a half to two hours, and results are available within two weeks. However, you may opt for Same-day Rapid Testing (for HIV/AIDS only), with the results available within 15 minutes.
Same-Day Rapid Testing for HIV is currently offered only at the following Health Centres and at the Family Planning Association. Please note that unlike the other locations, testing at the Family Planning Association is at a cost of TT$70.00.
