MANILA, Philippines — The full implementation of the e-Travel System will begin on April 15 for inbound and outbound passengers, the Bureau of Immigration said Friday. E-Travel System is an online site, where travelers can declare their arrival and health information, which aims to streamline the process of traveling to and from the Philippines. It was initially launched in December 2021.This new system will replace traditional paper-based registrations in Philippine airports for local and international travel, the BI said.
“Not only does this speed up immigration clearance, [but] this initiative also ensures interoperability among border management agencies, and saves government resources,” BI Commissioner Norman Tansingco said in a statement.
