Where can you get Professional RTK-Ag arriving in Malaysia within 24 hours

This is where CLEA comes in handy – the most convenient way for travellers to get their professional RTK-Ag. CLEA has been serving inbound travellers since November 2021 when VTL-Lane opened up and prof. administered RTK-Ag on Day 3 and 5 were mandatory.

When Malaysia border fully reopens on the 1st of April 2022, travellers can perform their RTK-Ag test to get doctor’s verification via CLEA in the comfort of their own home/hotel. CLEA Panel doctors will update to MySejahtera after the test is verified.
