Pink Carpet is a sexual health service operating within the AfA Anonymous Test Site (ATS) for GBQ(Gay, Bi, Questioning/Queer) men.

Regular testing puts you in control of your HIV and STI status allowing you to protect your health and the health of your sexual partners. However, we understand that that taking a HIV test can be a very stressful event, and that’s why we are here for you.

Pink Carpet wants to make the experience as simple, safe, and appropriate for the community.

If you find out you have HIV, you can then take steps to benefit your health, including talking to your doctor about treatment. There are plenty of services available to assist you with a new HIV diagnosis, including many provided by gayhealth.sg.

To find out more, please visit our Newly Diagnosed section.

What To Expect

This service is entirely run by dedicated volunteers who identifies as gay or bi men. We have received extensive training provided by AfA, and follow a strict protocol that places your comfort, safety and anonymity as the priority.

  • Registration

    The registration process is simple, and straightforward. When you arrive at the clinic, simply fill up the form, no personal details are required. Hold on to your form and take a seat, your number will be called shortly. The receptionist will buzz for your number, which is the last 4 digits of the serial number.

    This serial number is the only way you will be identified throughout the whole process.

    Once your number is called, proceed to the reception counter, select the type of test you need and pay accordingly. If you have not done a syphilis test in 6 months, consider taking it too.

    If you are unsure, our volunteers will be happy to explain and guide you along.

    The clinic only accepts cash.

  • Pre-Test Discussion

    Before the test, our peer counsellor will guide you through a pre-test discussion about the following:

    • Your behaviour since your last test to help us accurately access your risk level and provide you with information that is important to you
    • Your understanding of sexually transmitted infections, including HIV, how they are transmitted and how to protect yourself
    • The window period of the test you are taking, and what it means
    • What the test means and the implications of a positive or negative result
    • How Pink Carpet can support you after the test
