UK Anti-Doping officials visited the shared home of British Cycling and Team Sky on Friday as part of an investigation into "allegations of wrongdoing in cycling".
Two UKAD representatives travelled to the National Cycling Centre in Manchester, but the organisation would not disclose whether the meeting was pre-arranged or unannounced.
British Cycling and Team Sky have both confirmed they are cooperating with UKAD's investigation.
UKAD initially said on Thursday that it was investigating one allegation, but a statement was changed to "allegations" on Friday.
The initial allegation, reported by the Daily Mail, is that Team Sky and Sir Bradley Wiggins received a medical package from a British Cycling staff member in France on June 12, 2011. UKAD is investigating what was in the package.
Team Sky released a statement on Friday saying they were confident of no wrongdoing, while Wiggins released a statement on Saturday that said: "I welcome this investigation."
Team Sky also tweeted a second statement on Saturday insisting that UKAD's visit to the National Cycling Centre was not a "raid".
It read: "It has been a challenging few weeks for the Team. Some newspapers this morning [Saturday] have reported that Team Sky and British Cycling were 'raided' by UKAD yesterday. This was not the case.
"UKAD have confirmed they attended a meeting with British Cycling at the Velodrome in Manchester with their full cooperation.
"Team Sky abide by the rules. We are committed to clean competition and we want you to know that we 100% stand by that."
