Expresstest aims to end travel test confusion with free service for holidaymakers

Cignpost ExpressTest has become the first UK COVID testing company to give travellers real-time information on the entry requirements for holiday destinations across the world, https://www.expresstest.co.uk/find-the-right-test/.

As countries introduce their own testing rules to cope with fully vaccinated, partly vaccinated and non-vaccinated travellers, the free-to-use service gives holidaymakers an instant summary of any tests and documentation they must complete before their arrival, based on their travel date and vaccination status. 

Powered by sherpa°, the leading global provider of travel rules and documentation, the technology will help holidaymakers travel confidently as the world opens up after COVID. 

Nick Markham, co-founder at Cignpost ExpressTest said:

"While the UK has dropped arrivals testing for those who are fully vaccinated, more than 80 countries across the world still require travellers complete negative tests before their trip. These include favourite holiday destinations such as Italy, the US, many Caribbean islands and Australia.

“And with even more regulations in place for those who are not fully vaccinated, including older children, the rules are mind boggling with different tests, timescales, age limits, documentation and isolation requirements depending on your destination. 

“ExpressTest’s partnership with sherpa° allows us to cut through the complexity and help people travel easily.”

Max Tremaine, co-founder and CEO at sherpa° said:

"We're very pleased to partner with Cignpost ExpressTest to provide up-to-date and reliable travel requirements information to even more travellers in the UK. 2022 is the year that many of us are getting back to travelling internationally. But holidaymakers should be aware that the travel experience has changed over the past two years. This partnership helps UK holidaymakers to be fully prepared for any testing and documentation that applies to their trip."
