Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said foreigners with existing long-term visas, except those qualified under the Balikbayan Program, may enter the country.
This, however, shall be subject to the following conditions:
-They must have a pre-booked accommodation for at least seven nights in an accredited quarantine hotel or facility
-They must subject to Covid-19 testing at the quarantine hotel/facility on the sixth day from the date of arrival
-They are subject to the maximum capacity of inbound passengers at the port and date of entry
Roque said travel restrictions on those coming from India will remain in force until May 14.
“All these are without prejudice to immigrations, rules and regulations. The Commissioner of Immigration shall have the exclusive prerogative to decide on the waiver or recall of exclusion orders of foreign nationals, subject to regular reporting to the IATF Secretariat,” he also said.
The Bureau of Immigration has been directed to formulate the necessary guidelines.
