TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, there is a 72-hour requirement for the 'Fit to Fly' certificate. The Covid-19 RT-PCR test results must be obtained within 72 hours of your first flight and the 'Fit to Fly' certificate should also be issued within this timeframe. It needs to be a separate document that clearly states 'Fit to Fly' and must coincide with your COVID-19 test results.

To get the fit to fly you need to have a negative COVID test. So it is COVID PCR test first, followed by the Fit to Fly, all within 72 hours of departure.
