What are the new arrival protocols?

The COVID-19 task force set by the government has made several adjustments with the new arrival protocols. They have allowed Filipinos from the red list countries to return to the Philippines despite having their country of origin on the red list. They can also return to the country without the need to have Bayanihan flights as long as they undergo the right quarantine procedure.

Returning Filipinos will be asked to present a negative RT-PCR test which must be taken within 48 hours before their departure time. They also have to undergo the facility-based quarantine period and an RT-PCR will be taken on the seventh day.

However, for those foreign nationals with country’s of origin under the red list, Nograles clarified that they are still not allowed entry to the Philippines.

Meanwhile, those foreigners who are fully vaccinated and under the green list will not have to undergo the mandatory facility-based quarantine. They only have to self-monitor for any symptoms for the next 7 days. They also need to secure a negative RT-PCR test that needs to be taken 48 hours before their scheduled flight.
