In Vienna, the new period of validity of the Coronatests comes into force on Wednesday, 1. September. In the future, they will be usable as 3-G proof in the federal capital for less time than before. Specifically, a rapid antigen test performed in a test lane or pharmacy will only be valid for 24 hours instead of 48 hours as of September. For PCR tests, the time limit will be reduced from 72 to 48 hours.

Only in the case of children under twelve years of age, the previous time periods will remain in place for the two variants. Vienna has recently repeatedly imposed regulations that were stricter than in the rest of the country. For example, masks are currently compulsory in stores and supermarkets.
