I'm traveling overseas (returned to Japan).Public transport NG because the time and cost burden are tight

40,000 yen for a PCR test for returning to Japan in the United States ...

The problem is how to obtain a negative certificate locally, but basically there is no problem if the necessary test results are described in accordance with the format specified by the Japanese government.However, in the past, many cases have been reported that they have been rejected due to incomplete descriptions and the difference in testing methods and forced repatriations, so I do not want to go on an adventure here.So, I decided to choose a clinic that has already been traveling to Japan as an inspection organization.

Here, as the last time, the selection of the inspection organization was referred to the Japanese Airlines site used by the author.

The test until departure 72 hours before departure will select a clinic in San Francisco, the last stay city, but the departure is on Monday evening.In other words, the only way to perform a safe inspection during general business hours is to use weekends and Sundays.

For example, San Francisco introduces three inspection institutions, of which Downtown Medical is not operating on weekends.So, here I decided to select My Doctor Medical Group, which is operating 365 days a week.According to the explanation of the medical institution's site, it costs $ 375 for PCR tests and negative certificates for Japan.Normally, it will be issued a certificate the next day after the inspection, but if you issue an Express until 9:00 the next day, an additional $ 35 will be charged for an additional $ 35.

Since both Saturdays and Sundays could be used and did not hurry, I examined it on Saturday noon and chose a course for the next evening inspection certificate.The Downtown Medical is about $ 100 inexpensive, but cannot be inspected on the desired date.However, the expense of nearly 40,000 yen is very painful just for returning to Japan.This time, the cost of more than 700,000 yen is already over 700,000 yen, including flight rates and hotel charges, and it is close to 2.5 times to 3 times that of ordinary overseas travel expenses.To be honest, if this continues, I don't have a wallet at all, so I want my travels to normalize as soon as possible.

Since the inspection organization has been decided, make a reservation next.I made an appointment a week ago, but I almost always wanted to choose the consultation time.On the other hand, on the day of the test, when visiting the documents, multiple applicants had been replaced and changed, so it may be that they all take appointments just before.

In fact, the woman who had a conversation at the waiting area said, "I came here because Dubai business trip was decided in a hurry."It seems that there are some people who come in this way.

At the time of booking, it is necessary to input personal information, symptoms, medical history, etc. very carefully, and it is an image of entering the questionnaire and creating a medical record online.Conversely, if the necessary information was completed, the test on the day was smooth and was released in about 5 minutes.

After the inspection, the delivery of the documents is "It is the evening of the day after the test, but it can actually be prepared between 12:00 noon and 2:00 pm.I want it. "When I woke up the next morning, it was said that there was an email incoming call at 6:00 in the morning, and I was already ready.As expected, it seems that the clinic was not open even if I went early in the morning, so I visited around 11 o'clock and received a set of documents.This completes the documents before returning to Japan.
