Departure/Arrival.

Does anyone know If negative COVID test result is acceptable in e mail form from clinic.

Or has it to be printed out, I may not have facility to print out when I receive my result.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus is that a negative COVID test result must be printed rather than accepted in email form. It is suggested that printing facilities are widely available, so finding a place to print should not be an issue.

I have my test on a Sunday pm, the clinic tod me to expect results anytime up to midnight Monday.

If they are emailed before 17-00hrs I can use the local library.

Anytime after that I'm stumped, I catch the early morning train for Manchester airport Tuesday

Departure time 17-30.

Ronald Jackson. It might be worth checking with Manchester Airport to see if there are any print facilities there. Generally, lounges will do it (for a price!) but there may be some other option. It would surprise me if an airport the size of Manchester wouldn't have print facilities, but it's a case of knowing where to. Send a message to the airport

Every airport I've been in has a print facility somewhere near the check in counters. What airport are you flying out of, I'll look for you.

I have been to Hull today on a scouting mission to locate the clinic, I am thinking of doing the same with Manchester airport/station test sites.

They do a 3hr result test, I can also look for a printing station if I need one.

Don't depart until November 30.
