Six PH domestic destinations drop COVID-19 test requirement for travelers

Six domestic destinations, including Cebu, Pagadian, Negros Occidental, Guimaras, Tacloban, and Butuan, have removed the requirement for RT-PCR or antigen tests for travelers.

Travelers bound for Cebu Province must present a medical certificate issued within 24 hours before arrival, confirming they are symptom-free of COVID-19.

For Pagadian City, passengers need to show a valid government-issued ID with their address in the city, while transiting passengers are exempted from any requirements.

For Negros Occidental (except Bacolod City), Guimaras, Tacloban, and Butuan, fully vaccinated individuals can present their vaccination cards as proof of their status, provided they are at least 14 days post-vaccination.

Additional requirements for Negros Occidental and Guimaras include a Travel Coordination Permit (TCP) from S-Pass and complete registration to StaySafe.ph.

Passengers flying to Tacloban must register under the Balik Tacloban Project through www.baliktacloban.tacloban.gov.ph.
