Retest for $200
What should I do if I am offered to take a second test for $200? Everything was ok before departure. At the airport, they forced me to do another one, after 3 (!) Days, supposedly positive, but they don’t give the result, they offer to hand it over for 200 USD.

=========
Something new. On what basis? Didn't like the form or 72 hours have expired?
Contact the agent, only TO can intervene. But, apparently, you fell under the millstones. Rare bad luck. Sorry

If at the airport of Sharm they were forced to pass a second test, this is not the first time in connection with the new rules
200 y.e. this is for 1 person or 2, before the repeated one was in the region of $ 120-140 for 1

How many times have they told the world ... (c)
Do a test BEFORE departure, why create problems for yourself. In this situation, I would require a document with the result of the first test.

There are few details, perhaps the deadlines were not met. Perhaps at the airport they spotted with an elevated temperature.

So what is the reason that your test made "before departure" did not fit? Why did they make you check in at the airport?

Egypt changed the rules
On the website of the MZS, on the website of the Ministry of Health, on the websites of tour operators there is an official list. laboratories doing a COVID test with a translation, I did it, and then it turned out that they would not pass in Egypt, it would have to be done on the spot, like for $ 30. My operator has already changed the requirements for the test, but later I will not have time.

Ivan456, it seems to me that you are not saying something. How did your tour operator make such changes, who will refund you money for an Invalid test or pay for a new one? How did you and sochechka get into this situation with an invalid test. I don’t know of a single country where the rules and conditions for tourists have changed day by day. Egypt is no exception, at this difficult moment, the country, on the contrary, does everything for the convenience of vacationers and tourism support. All changes in the rules are announced in advance and the terms of their entry into force are specified. In which laboratory did you take the tests? Can I have the name and address?

"this situation is invalid " - the test may be valid and passed officially in the laboratory in the list of the Ministry of Health and the dates may pass, but may be missing such as QR code or the Egyptian side may doubt "the validity of the test, "
I know that in connection with this situation, several travel agents wrote a letter to the Embassy of Ukraine in Egypt and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine - whether the Egyptian side will issue a certificate or some document for some reason / for what reason the test was done in the official laboratory in Ukraine. raised doubts. authenticity and therefore the tourist was forced to retake the test at the airports of Egypt.

What the Embassy of Ukraine in Egypt writes in its warning
"- The certificate must be issued by an official laboratory, which is a state document, and must contain the seal of the laboratory, the doctor's signature and / or QR-code containing a link to the test result on the official website of the laboratory; " -
but those who have a QR code on the certificate say that the code makes a parcel to the laboratory site itself, not to the test result of that person.
Next "- The certificate should not contain any corrections, abrasions or edits; " - the Egyptians themselves can purely "accidentally " put a point or some other mark on your test and everything is already in doubt
