Antigua and Barbuda visa medical.

A Antigua and Barbuda visa medical generally involves the following. This reflects Antigua and Barbuda's current requirements as far as we know today.

• Examination: General physical exam (skin, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive/abdomen, urogenital, nervous system, MSK, endocrine, contagious-disease signs) plus height/weight; examiner verifies identity via passport/ID

• Bloods: No specific panel beyond the HIV test; examiner reviews history of TB, hepatitis, typhoid, cancer, immune deficiency. Additional charge, confirmed at consultation.

• Other tests: Original HIV test result showing full name, not older than 3 months at submission

• The report: Completed on the destination's own form, an embassy template, or a covering report we draft, with all signatures and stamps included.

• Requirements and forms are your responsibility. Visa medical requirements change and embassies do not always announce it, so you must check the current requirements directly with the Antigua and Barbuda embassy or High Commission in London, obtain the correct forms, and satisfy yourself that you have exactly what your application needs. We will help wherever we can, but confirming what Antigua and Barbuda requires is yours to do.

• Only a watermarked SAMPLE PDF is public; the live blank form is issued via an authorised CIP agent. No explicit minimum age for the HIV test (unlike the other four programmes, which exempt under-12s); confirm with the CIU.

Bring passport/photo ID. A recent (within 3 months of submission) original HIV test result with full name must be enclosed, so plan a blood draw around the consultation. Also need a 35x45mm passport photo; if under 16, a parent/guardian signs.

Your report is completed on the destination's official medical form:
