Get tested for COVID-19. Stay Safe MN

We strongly encourage you to sign up for an appointment using the registration link on COVID-19 Community Testing. Signing up ahead of time helps avoid long lines. People who walk in without an appointment might have to come back later or another day.

  • Testing is free, and you do not need insurance or identification.
  • You can get tested even if you don't have symptoms of COVID-19. For example, if you think you have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19 or if you got a call from the health department telling you that you may have been exposed.
  • Community testing is designed to serve the local community. If you live farther away, we encourage you to get tested at your local clinic. For help finding a nearby location, see Find Testing Locations.

What to bring:

  • Wear a mask or face covering if you can.
  • Bring your confirmation text or email if you can.
  • You do not need to show identification or insurance information.
