ORIGINAL POSTER

Do I need my pcr test to be stamped and signed by the analyst? It says I have to choose same day result test , which adds 80$ more to the test pcr test price (180$).

Do I need this ? Or just second day result is fine ?

I'm in Bay area , California, do you guys recommend any good labs for the rt-pcr test ?

Thanks !

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking clarification on whether a PCR test needs to be stamped and signed by an analyst for travel to Thailand, especially given the higher cost for a same-day result test compared to a second-day result. They are also looking for recommendations for reputable labs in the Bay Area, California for RT-PCR testing.
