This is the centre. The TB certificate looks different if you get it from one of these (
). But UK consulate will accept it for visa purposes. No need to be worried.

Hi, if your residency in Saudi Arabia reaches 6 month or more you do not need the tb test.
I did it in OMC- Olayia Medical Center by mistake because I live here for more than 2 continuing years.

Yes correct. Please see the below sentences form:

Who does not need to be tested
You will not need a TB test if any of the following apply:

you鈥檙e a diplomat accredited to the UK
you鈥檙e a returning UK resident and have not been away for more than 2 years
you lived for at least 6 months in a country where TB screening is not required by the UK, and you鈥檝e been away from that country for no more than 6 months

I think if you stay in Saudi Arabia for six months or more the TB test not required. People coming from KSA to UK the TB test not required聽 from them to get the visa. Please ensure and do not spend SR500 on some thing not required.Please keep us updated聽 because I want to bring the family.
