The public is informed of the latest testing and quarantine regulation applicable to all arriving international passengers to the Philippines effective 0001H (Manila time) of 08 May 2021 pursuant to Resolution No.114 of the Inter-Agency Task Force on the Management of Emerging Infectious Disease (IATF-EID), as follows:

  1. A mandatory 14-day quarantine will be imposed on all arriving travellers --- 10 days in an accredited hotel or quarantine facility upon arrival (Day 1), and the remaining 4 days of isolation (Day 11- Day 14) at home or in their hotels provided their RT-PCR test results taken on Day 7 are negative.
  2. Visitors will have to complete the minimum 10-day stay in the government-accredited quarantine facility even if the Day 7 RT-PCR test returns negative.
  3. The revised regulations will be in effect in all ports of entry and shall be applicable to all international arrivals regardless of vaccination status.

The new measures announced by Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque in a May 7 briefing are part of Philippine Government efforts to contain the spread of more infectious variants of the SARS CoV-2 virus that causes Covid-19. Prior to the announcement of this new rule, arriving visitors were required to undergo a 7-day hotel quarantine with an RT-PCR test being taken on Day 6.

Please be guided accordingly.
