Who is this test for?
If you’ve previously slept with someone who has tested positive for Chlamydia, you should get tested to ensure you aren’t also a carrier of the infection. If you’ve not necessarily been told you have Chlamydia but have had unprotected sex, then this rapid Chlamydia test, combined with our Profile Tests, is a great way to get a clear picture of your sexual health status.

Book your clinic and time
Choose from 100+ clinics. When you pick one, you will see whether it collects your urine sample on site or sends you a kit to bring with you.
-
If needed, collect your sample at home first
Some clinics do not collect urine on site. For those, we post an unlabelled collection kit to your home or a Post Office of your choosing. Book at least 4 days ahead so it arrives, then follow the instructions and bring it with you.
-
Visit the clinic
Our clinics are located in discreet, general health settings, so no one will know why you are there. Depending on the clinic, you may need to bring your test kit and/or a valid ID — we'll let you know in advance if either is required. A trained nurse or doctor will collect the samples needed for your test, which may include blood, urine or a swab.

FAQs
The questions we hear most about this test, answered plainly.
If you’ve previously slept with someone who has tested positive for Chlamydia, you should get tested to ensure you aren’t also a carrier of the infection. If you’ve not necessarily been told you have Chlamydia but have had unprotected sex, then this rapid Chlamydia test, combined with our Profile Tests, is a great way to get a clear picture of your sexual health status.
All Chlamydia tests are carried out using swab samples that will be collected at your clinic under the supervision of a nurse. For anyone with a vagina, this will be a vaginal swab. For those with a penis, this will be a urethral swab. We’ll then test for Chlamydia antigens (a sign of a positive infection) using your samples while you wait.
This test has one of the quickest turnaround times on the market, taking only 30 minutes to gain accurate results. For extra peace of mind, we’ll also send a confirmatory sample to our laboratory for a more thorough analysis, which is completely free of charge.
Please be advised that our instant Chlamydia test only offers the advised level of accuracy 14 days after potential exposure (i.e., 2 weeks after your last sexual encounter). If you believe you came into contact sooner than 14 days, there may be other tests better suited to you. Please get in touch with our team for tailored advice.
Can You Get Instant Chlamydia Results?
Yes, you can. If you choose to book our Instant Chlamydia test, you’ll be able to get STD results within half an hour thanks to our state-of-the-art testing facilities, provided you book the appointment at one of our specialised clinics. The test is accurate from two weeks after exposure and uses an easy swab sample to test for the infection.
Do Instant Chlamydia Tests Actually Work?
Results in under half an hour may sound too good to be true, but instant Chlamydia tests do actually work! On average, instant Chlamydia tests are 86% reliable in terms of sensitivity, and 97% reliable in terms of specificity. This is comparable with most standard STD tests.

Can Chlamydia Be Tested For Immediately After Exposure?
No, it usually takes at least 5 days after exposure for Chlamydia to show up in a test. However, sometimes it can take much longer, so to avoid false negative results, we recommend waiting for 14 days before getting tested for the most accurate instant testing results.
Do You Offer Instant Tests at Home?
Unfortunately not. Whilst we do offer home Chlamydia test kits, it takes up to two days to receive your results after we receive your samples at our lab. If you’re looking for results straight away, you’re better off booking our instant Chlamydia test at one of our clinics in the UK.
What Sample is Needed for an Instant Chlamydia Test?
Our rapid Chlamydia test requires a swab sample to provide accurate results. A swab not your thing? We also offer Urine Chlamydia Tests at our sexual health clinics, but turnaround times may take a few days.
Can Our Instant Chlamydia Test Detect Other STIs?
No, this is a test specific for Chlamydia only, so even if you have been infected with other STIs, they won’t show up in the results. However, we do offer tests for other STIs within our Same-Day STD Test range, including Gonorrhoea, Syphilis, HIV, and Herpes. However, if you’re looking for instant results for more than one STD, the most cost-effective option would be to book our Instant Comprehensive Test, which provides results for 6 STDs within an hour.
