On October 8, the Department of Tourism (DOT) announced that fully vaccinated people from Metro Manila, regardless of age, are now permitted to travel point-to-point.

This came after the Inter-Agency Task Force updated GCQ and changed Part 1 Section 3 of the rules for places under alert level 4 to enable the following people to travel in regions under general community quarantine:

Those under the age of 18; fully vaccinated people over the age of 65; fully vaccinated people with immunodeficiencies, comorbidities, or other health concerns; and fully vaccinated pregnant women

Bernadette Romulo-Puyat, the country’s tourism secretary, praised the initiative, noting its importance in the country’s tourist recovery.

“More fully vaccinated people, particularly families that want to travel together, will be able to enjoy interzonal travel if travel restrictions are further eased. Traveling together is a great way to connect, and we can do it securely with all of the safeguards and procedures in place. More significantly, this would motivate more Filipinos to get their vaccinations “she said herself.

“As limitations are removed, more tourist workers and stakeholders will reclaim the jobs and lives that the epidemic took away,” she said.

The Department of Transportation will provide P2P travel rules to guarantee that health and safety regulations are followed.

In the meanwhile, the procedures set by the destination would determine the RT-PCR test needs.

If a negative test result is required by the local government unit, travelers from Metro Manila may have a discounted PHP750 RT-PCR test at the Philippine Children’s Medical Center by going to www.tpb.gov.ph/rtpcrphtravel-application.
