    This is the only approved test clinic in the Philippines :-


    International Organisation for Migration Health Centre
    15th Floor, Units A and B Trafalgar Plaza
    105 H.V. dela Costa Street
    Salcedo Village
    Makati City 1227
    Metro Manila
    Tel: (632) 883-9339 or (632) 511-8771
    Mob: (917) 593-4688 (globe operator) or (919) 993-4667 (smart operator)
    Fax: (632) 883-9377


    As you know, you must be tested for TB if you are from the Philippines and coming to the UK for more than 6 months.


    You should contact this clinic to book an appointment. Make it clear you need the test for a UK visa application. It may take up to 10 days to get an appointment.


    Bring proof of identification such as your passport.
    If you have had TB in the past or any other lung disease you should provide details of your previous screening, and, if possible medical notes / x-ray results.


    The test fee is 3200 Philippine pesos. You pay the clinic directly. This is in addition to the visa application fee. The test fee does not cover treatment if you have TB.

    I tried calling them since last Monday to book an appointment but no one answers my call. Landline & mobile

    I have been calling them too since this morning since I have just arrived from the UK last night. All numbers are either busy or no one is answering. I have mailed them a month ago to book an appointment tomorrow and I got a reply asking for some questions with regards to visa appt although I didn't get a confirmation for the TB testing appt tomorrow. I will print out the email and go there tomorrow as I will be catching up with my bestfriend who lives near Makati.

    It's hard to book an appointment with them through phone as they are all busy from the time they open the centre. I booked mine through email but it took few days before I got an answer from them. It's just 2 exchanging emails. First, emailed them about booking appointment for UK visa with the date and time u wanna have the test then got an email and just answer all the questions they asked then after that they will email your reference ID and just bring 2 valid ID's during the test!!!!!!

    My partner just went to the clinic today as we live on the same street to enquire about the test. They said to come back tomorrow at 10am and they will do it then. Next month we hope to lodge visa application, but currently getting all the needed documents together and we had assumed it would take about 10 days to do this. If he does it now is it too early? How far in advance can the TB test be done from the date of application?

    Thanks

    TB test certificate is a requirement for settlement visa application.

    I would say have the test done/get the certificate and then book for your visa application.

    Btw, the certificate is valid for six months.

    That's great to know will get it done then as we will apply for the visa not long after our civil partnership.

    Thanks again

    Hi...

    You can reach them through email to book appointment. Email is better than calling, so give it a try. I've been there and my appointment was booked thru email.
