Tests for HIV, syphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhoea for only CHF 75
With KulturLegi or born 1999 & younger free of charge.
In May 2024, you can get tested at Checkpoint Zurich for just CHF 75 (instead of CHF 165) – quickly, easily and anonymously if you wish. The tests are free of charge for young people born up to and including 1999.
The offer only applies to men and trans people who have sex with men and includes tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhoea and chlamydia. The offer does not apply to PrEP users if the tests are covered by health insurance as part of the follow-up check. People with a valid KulturLegi now also benefit from a free HIV/STI test. Prüfe, ob du Anspruch auf eine KulturLegi hast! The test number of the May campaign is limited and can therefore be booked out quickly. So book your appointment early. We are committed to offering more discounted tests for our community.
#1 GET TESTED,
BE SAFER:
Condoms or PrEP protect against HIV, but not reliably against other STIs such as syphilis, chlamydia or gonorrhoea. Only a test will give you certainty.
#2 GET TESTED,
PROTECT YOURSELF:
An infection with an STI is often asymptomatic. Take care of your health with testing and treatment.
#3 GET TESTED,
PROTECT EACH OTHER:
STIs can be transmitted during sex, you don’t have to be ashamed. Recognised and treated early, you help to prevent the pathogens from spreading further. Thanks!

Questions?
All tests (HIV, syphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhoea) together cost only CHF 75. The tests are free of charge for young people born up to and including 1999 and people with a KulturLegi.
We test HIV, syphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhea. For HIV and syphilis you will be given blood, for chlamydia and gonorrhea you will get a smear test.
Men who have sex with men:Yes!
Trans people? Yes, both trans men and trans women. Also non-binary or queer people are allowed to take part as long as they have sex with men.
Lesbian, bi and queer women? Unfortunately not.
Heterosexual cis women? Unfortunately no.
Heterosexual cis men? Unfortunately no; unless they have sex with men.
Unfortunately, not everyone can benefit from the discounted test This is because the Federal Office of Public Health defines some groups as particularly vulnerable in terms of HIV. During the campaign, however, we will continue to offer our regular STI tests. If you are unsure whether the favourable tests apply to you, please speak to one of our employees.
The campaign runs from 2 to 31 May 2024.
We prefer payment by card. You can pay with Maestro & credit cards and Twint during the campaign. Unfortunately, we cannotoffer the Postfinance card during the campaign. And cash is also possible, of course.
