Last updated: 10 FEBRUARY 2022
A new entry process for international passengers reaching Manila’s Ninoy Aquino international airport (NAIA) has been implemented following the most recent resolution of the Inter-Agency task force for emerging and infectious diseases (IATF-EID). These steps are still a part of the reaction to manage the COVID-19 pandemic.
NAIA is the primary gateway to Metro Manila and surrounding provinces including Batangas, Cavite, and Laguna. In this article, you’ll find a comprehensive guide to the whole arrival process at NAIA — including the steps you need to take prior to your flight, as shared by the country’s most significant carriers, Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific.
But before anything else, it is essential that you know the general testing and quarantine requirements and protocol for international passengers arriving in the Philippines. These vary according to your vaccination status.
The testing and quarantine protocols change frequently so we chose to create a separate post for it. read THIS FIRST: list OF PHILIPPINE QUARANTINE & testing requirements & PROTOCOL! ✅
Now that you have an overview, let’s talk about the airport arrival process specifically. In general, the flow is similar, but there are a few differences at certain points, depending on what type of passenger you belong to. Government, airport and airline authorities categorize international passengers into three main types:
OFWs (Overseas Filipino Workers). In this guide, families traveling with at least one OFW will all be considered OFWs.
Non-OFWs. This is in some cases referred to in some communications as ROFs (Returning overseas Filipinos), but in this short article and in the interest of clarity, let’s simply call it non-OFWs.
Eligible Foreigners. This includes foreign spouse and children of Filipinos, diplomats, foreign officials certified by the Philippines, and other eligible non-Filipino nationals.
If you’re flying to NAIA, here’s a comprehensive guide on what to do before your flight and the protocols upon arrival.
