Amsterdam

Would you like to get tested for an STI in Amsterdam? At GGD Amsterdam, located at Nieuwe Achtergracht 100, you may be eligible for a free STI test under certain conditions. This service is primarily intended for people belonging to specific risk groups or those with an increased risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Not everyone automatically qualifies for free testing. Additionally, appointment availability may be limited, meaning you could experience a waiting period. Want to find out quickly whether you have an STI without first having to check if you qualify for testing at the GGD? An anonymous at-home STI test from Labtest.nl offers a convenient alternative.

GGGD Amsterdam at Nieuwe Achtergracht 100

The GGD Amsterdam STI clinic is located at Nieuwe Achtergracht 100 in Amsterdam, close to Weesperplein. The location is easily accessible by public transport and is relatively central in the city. You cannot simply walk in for an STI test; you must make an appointment in advance, and the GGD will assess whether you qualify for free STI testing. Due to high demand, appointments may not always be available immediately. If you prefer not to travel to Nieuwe Achtergracht or wait for an appointment, you can choose an STI test that you collect at home and send to our certified laboratory for analysis.

Free STI testing at GGD Amsterdam

An STI test at GGD Amsterdam is free if you belong to an eligible group. Eligibility depends on your personal circumstances, such as your age, symptoms, whether a partner has been diagnosed with an STI, or other factors that increase your risk of infection. Free STI testing is therefore not automatically available to everyone. The GGD will first assess whether you qualify.

Waiting times at GGD Amsterdam

The number of appointments available at the GGD is limited. As a result, you may not be able to get tested immediately, and there may be a waiting list. Don’t want to wait, or don’t qualify for free testing? You can also choose an at-home STI test. Order before 5:00 PM, and your test kit will be shipped free of charge the same day.
