One Health Pass to Travel to the Philippines

The One Health Pass for the Philippines has been replaced by a new electronic migratory form, the Philippine One-Stop Electronic Travel Declaration System (previously called the eTraveCard).

This updated health system performs the same function as the One Health Pass and eTravel. However, it is more streamlined and quicker to use.

The One Health Pass is no longer a requirement. Instead, all travelers must complete the Philippine One-Stop Electronic Travel Declaration.

This page provides information about the one-stop system for the Philippines and explains how to submit the health declaration.

Are the One-Stop eTravel Declaration and the One Health Pass the Same?

The One-Stop Electronic Travel Declaration is the latest upgraded version of the One Health Pass.

Both are online health declarations for the Philippines introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The One Health Pass is no longer in use, having been replaced by the improved One-Stop system. The new digital form is shorter and the process of arriving in the Philippines with the new QR code or barcode has been simplified.

When was the One Health Pass replaced by the One-Stop Declaration?

The One Health Pass was a travel requirement for the Philippines until the end of October 2022.

On November 1, 2022, the One Health Pass was replaced by the Philippines eArrival Card. The name was later changed to Philippines eTravel Card, and finally the Philippine One-Stop Electronic Travel Declaration System.

What was the Philippines One Health Pass?

The One Health Pass (OHP) was an online platform for people visiting the Philippines. It was introduced to facilitate safe travel to the Philippines during COVID-19.

Now, inbound travelers must instead complete the updated version of the One Health Pass, called the one-stop system.

Incoming passengers need to register their details and flight information before taking a flight to the Philippines as well as completing the mandatory electronic Health Declaration.

They must provide contact details, health data, and other information about their trip.

Who Needs the One Health Pass for the Philippines?

No one currently needs the One Health Pass, as it has been discontinued.

Instead, all foreign visitors must fill out the new electronic travel registration online before flying to international airports in the Philippines, including:

The first 2 airports serve the Greater Manila Area and all are major international ports of entry in the Philippines.

Do residents and citizens of the Philippines need One Health Pass?

While residents and citizens do not need a travel authorization or visa to enter the country, Filipino nationals and residents returning from overseas must supply their health information to enter the country.

Therefore, they were also required to register with One Health Pass and complete an eHDC, until this system was replaced. Now, they are required to register with the new system.

Is One Health Pass still required for the Philippines in 2022?

As of November 1, 2022, the One Health Pass is no longer required for the Philippines.

Instead, travelers must use the upgraded one-stop electronic Travel system to complete the required health declaration.

Many travel restrictions for the Philippines have now been lifted.

However, the health declaration is still a mandatory requirement regardless of vaccination status, although it is no longer referred to as the OHP.

How to Get the One Health Pass for the Philippines

Travelers accessed the One Health Pass for the Philippines through the web-based online portal. Applicants did not need to download a mobile application.

The first time they entered, they had to register their details. Once registered, users could access their One Health Pass by entering their login details.

How did the One Health Pass work?

These are the steps that passengers had to take before boarding a flight to the Philippines:

Passengers would only be allowed to board a flight for the Philippines if they had filled out the One Health Pass health declaration form in the last 24 hours and had a unique QR code.

The new system is similar to the OHP. However, you now have 72 hours before traveling to complete the health declaration.
