It depends on the doctor. They wont do the X-ray, but will do a normal check and give you a certificate. I did for my son in bangalore.

In this very forum, I have read rejection of application for kids because of no certificate.

Essentially, doctor will (may) not perform a x-ray due to exposure after health check.

But, you STiLL need a doctor's 'letter' saying it.
Check out this forum, if you want to. Post might be in last 3-4 months.

As copy-pasted from UKBA web site::

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/count ... %20English

You do not need to have a TB test if you are:

a child under the age of 11;
a holder of a diplomatic passport; or
a returning UK resident.


My Query Remains:
Do one needs to go to clinician for the Dependents Aged 6 and below in PAKISTAN?

If yes, I could not find any list of Classified clinicians for Pakistan. Can anybody provide any link to the Clasified clinicians for Pakistan on UKBA Website?

Dear expertbuddy, could you please let me know does the clinic charge if after filling up a questionnaire they decide TB test is NOT required for child ?

Thanks.
