Non invasive PCR

Does such a thing exist? I have a son who is recovering from medical trauma. He’s undiagnosed but probably on the spectrum, and is terrified of doctors and anything remotely invasive (won’t even let a doctor look in his ear without screaming and running away.) There is a chance I might have to travel with him for work later in the year. I’m double jabbed and he’s too young to have the vaccine but we’d both have to have several PCRs or equivalents. Is there a non invasive equivalent for travel? Or if not is there any way of getting an exemption without a formal autism diagnosis? My worry is that if I force him to do it and he gets even more traumatised it could be dangerous if we ever have a medical emergency and have to go hospital (hopefully not of course). Thanks so much in advance for your help.

And no they don't have to be verified. They send you the kit, you do the test and they come and collect it.
