Has my Test Kit expiration date been extended?

The QuickVue At-Home OTC COVID-19 Test has been granted FDA EUA authorization to extend expiration dating from 12 months to 16 months. A copy of the letter is available here. Please note the expiration dates on the outer kit box may not reflect the 16-month dating for product that is already distributed.

To verify if the expiration date for a particular lot has been extended:

Go to the FDA Webpage »

You will require the lot number on your test kit box. If your lot number is not found on this list, it has not been date-extended, and the expiration date listed on the kit box should be used.
