COVID-19 coronavirus: WA free RAT program

Information about free Rapid Antigen Tests (RAT) in Western Australia.
Last updated: 31 May 2023

RATs (Rapid Antigen Tests) are a quick and convenient way to detect and limit the spread of COVID-19.

The WA Government is making free RATs available to the community to ensure access to COVID-19 testing and help ease cost of living pressures.

All Western Australians are encouraged to collect their free RATs from the following:

  • Pop-ups
  • Electorate Offices of Members of Parliament
  • Regional Health facilities

Additional free RATs for people with disability and support workers are available through the Department of Communities.

Where can I collect free RATs?

Below is a list of locations where you can get your free RATs.

Please do not attend a free RAT collection point if you have symptoms. Ask a friend or support person to collect them for you.

Register your positive result

If you test positive on your RAT, register your results online with WA Health and stay home until you are recovered to prevent the spread of infection.

Register your positive RAT result
