HIV rapid test also outside the Checkpoint by telephone arrangement.

If you only want to take a rapid HIV test, you can do so not only at our Checkpoint, but also during the counselling hours of the Counselling Centre (see below for times).

  • This is only possible if you call 0721 / 35 48 16 0 to make an appointment.
  • Anonymous. Costs: 20 euros.
  • People with low income (students, people in the asylum procedure, people with the "Karlsruhe Pass") only pay 10 €. Written proof is required.

Please read the information on the HIV rapid test.


This always applies:

  • If you have symptoms / complaints that could indicate a sexually transmitted infection, please consult a specialist!
  • If you want to be tested for chlamydia and gonococci, please note that men* should not have urinated for two hours before the checkpoint appointment.

Please note:

  • Appointments can be changed at short notice; we recommend that you check our homepage again on the day in question!
  • During the checkpoint, you will not be informed of the STI results; this will only be done by telephone during the opening hours of the counselling centre!
