Last week the government announced that fully vaccinated foreign nationals may enter the Philippines without an entry exemption document starting April 1, 2022.

The government’s pandemic task force approved the entry of foreigners without an entry exemption document provided they comply with the applicable visa requirement and immigration rules.

 

Foreign nationals must be fully vaccinated, except for minor children below 12 years old traveling with their fully vaccinated parents. They must also possess an acceptable proof of vaccination, which include any of the following:

 

World Health Organization International Certificate of Vaccination and Prophylaxis

VaxCertPH

 

National or state digital certificate of the country or foreign government which has accepted VaxCertPH under a reciprocal arrangement

 

Other proof of vaccination permitted by the IATF.

 

Many Filipinos and expats have not seen family and friends for up to two years due to closed borders and restricted travel.

 

Now with these new regulations being put into place many will be making travel plans.

Let’s just hope it is not an April fools’ joke being April 1st.
