The Philippines will lift its ban on the entry of travelers from 10 countries starting next week.
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte approves the recommendation of the Inter-Agency Task Force to lift the current travel restrictions in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia starting September 6, 2021. The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases said Saturday in a statement.
International travelers coming from the above mentioned countries shall, however, comply with the appropriate entry, testing, and quarantine protocols, depending on the country’s approved ‘listing’, it added.
Countries, jurisdictions, and territories will be under “Yellow List” and “Red List” and “Green List,” depending on the number of new cases and testing rates in those areas.
The task force earlier said fully vaccinated travelers from Green List areas or those with low COVID-19 risk should go through a seven-day facility-based quarantine upon arrival in the country.
