COVID Test - no Chave Móvel?
Hi,
I never got round to getting my Chave Móvel which I need to get at a Loja cidadão or the like since I have permanent residence (registered for exchange for new whatever) not Cartão cidadão , etc etc (Doh! I think I'm turning Portuguese, I think I'm turning Portuguese, I really think so...)
After calling SNS24 (choosing the English option but getting someone who speaks no English
) I now have to go get a test and have received the 'Exames Sem Papel' SMS, but have no way to access via the sns/gov.pt/cidadao site
I am in isolamento profilatico (love that phrase) so I cant go and get a Chave Móvel ...
Catch 22?
Any advice?
Can I do the test by just booking on phone from the online list of labs and tell them the numbers?
I will call a lab and perhaps SNS24 again, of course, but have been here long enough to know that its best to get various opinions on the facts first
Cheers
Leigh

Re: COVID Test - no Chave Móvel?
For anyone searching this in the future; you only need to quote the numbers from the SMS when booking the test
The list of labs is here
For my area (Seixal/Alamada) the only labs that answered the phone was the one with the headquarters in Porto (unilabs.pt, 220125001, 222401401, [email protected]), with a very good service and I managed to book for the next day (today)
