Rules for visiting the country in connection with the COVID pandemic

The Philippine Bureau of Quarantine (BOQ), which is a division of the Department of Health, has published guidelines for visiting the country in connection with the COVID pandemic.

1️. Fully vaccinated travelers (2 doses + booster) do not need to take tests before arriving in the Philippines. Russian anti-covid drugs "Sputnik V" + "Sputnik Light" will do. The main thing is the main vaccination course and a booster vaccination from above.

2️. For unvaccinated or partially vaccinated (1 dose of vaccine) travelers aged 15 years and older, it is sufficient to provide a certificate with a negative result of a rapid antigen test carried out no more than 24 hours before departure from the airport of departure. Those who did not have the required document before boarding the plane must pass such a test upon arrival at one of the Philippine airports. If the virus is detected, the tourist will be sent to isolation.

3️. Unvaccinated accompanied children under the age of 15 follow the protocols for their parents/guardians traveling with them.

4️. Unvaccinated unaccompanied children under the age of 15 must provide a certificate with a negative rapid antigen test carried out no more than 24 hours before departure from the airport of departure.

5. Unvaccinated foreigners canceled quarantine.

One Health Pass no longer works – access to the system has been discontinued since December 5, 2022.

Instead, eTravel is a new platform for registering arriving tourists. It is necessary to fill in and download the received QR code in order to present it when passing through immigration control.

! Paper arrival cards will no longer be accepted.

Addendum: All travelers arriving in the Philippines must register and complete an online eArrival Card.
