Utrecht

Would you like to get tested for an STI in Utrecht? At GGD regio Utrecht, located at Stadsplateau 1, you may be eligible for a free STI test if you meet certain requirements. The GGD offers these tests to specific groups. Since the number of available appointments is limited, you may not always be able to get tested immediately.

GGD Utrecht at Stadsplateau 1

The STI clinic of GGD regio Utrecht is located in the Municipal Office (Stadskantoor) at Stadsplateau 1, 3521 AZ Utrecht. The building is situated directly next to Utrecht Central Station, on the Jaarbeurs side, making it easily accessible by public transport. The Sexual Health Clinic is located on the fourth floor, near waiting area N. Visits are by appointment only. Before you can get tested for an STI, the GGD will assess whether you belong to one of its eligible groups. If you prefer not to travel to the Municipal Office, you can also choose an at-home STI test from Labtest.nl, with analysis performed by a certified laboratory.

Free STI testing at GGD regio Utrecht
