Where are you I’ve just done mine online in uk and it was easy just 24hr turnaround

My GP would not sign it or run the tests nor would a private local hospital I approached . But it was easy to do online .

take a photo on your iPhone or iPad and then select print ( even though you are not going to print it). It will turn it into a pdf which you can then save and send.

For the Medical Certificate in the past I had the doctor sign it and put the center's stamp on it. Then I scanned it and uploaded into the Evisa website.
