Philippines honors COVID-19 vaccination certificates from more countries

The Philippines has expanded the list of COVID-19 vaccination certificates that travelers must have for entry into the country, MalacaƱang said on Friday. 


The inter-agency task force on COVID-19, in a meeting on Thursday, accredited certificates from the following territories as proof of vaccination, which travelers can present for entry, quarantine and interzonal or intrazonal movement, said Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles. 


  • Argentina
  • Brunei Darussalam
  • Cambodia
  • Chile
  • Denmark
  • Ecuador
  • Indonesia
  • Myanmar
  • Papua New Guinea
  • Peru
  • Portugal
  • Spain
  • Azerbaijan
  • Macau 
  • Syria 

 

These are on top of other territories whose COVID-19 certificates were earlier approved by the COVID-19 task force, Nograles said in a press briefing.



The government mandated that only fully vaccinated foreign travelers will be allowed entry into the Philippines as part of efforts to address the COVID-19 pandemic.


The Philippines in January fought a record surge in coronavirus infections driven by the highly infectious omicron variant. COVID-19 cases have since fallen below 3,000 a day.
