The connect project promotes HIV testing and helps you get access to free HIV self-testing kits.
Want a free HIV self-test kit?
All you need to do is answer a few questions and provide a mobile phone number so that we can send you a code to access the free HIV self-test kit.
Once you’ve received your SMS then you can:
- Go to a CONNECT vending machine of your choice.
- Scan the QR code on the machine or enter the machine code.
- Then your test kit will be dispensed.


We also suggest that you watch the instructional video before using the HIV self-test kit.
It helps to know what the steps are in taking the test. The video is available with subtitles in Arabic, Farsi, Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Mandarin, Spanish, and Vietnamese.
The self-test kit includes instructions in English, but you can download them in Arabic, Farsi, Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Mandarin, Spanish, and Vietnamese from the CONNECT webpage.
For your convenience, you can access all translated instructions for use here. Simply click on your language preference and the instructions will download/open straight away.
Download instructions in:
English, Farsi, Arabic, Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Mandarin, Spanish or Vietnamese
Once you have registered for a HIV self-test kit, we will send you a short optional survey via SMS a few days afterwards asking about your experience.
