This thread is to collect information relating to the BI requirements for covid insurance. Has anyone been required to show proof of covid insurance in order to extend their tourist visa? Where did you purchase your covid insurance? Will a Philippines Pacific Cross policy suffice? Based on the IATF's resolution, all arriving visitors must be able to present the following: Travel insurance for Covid-19 treatment costs from reputed insurers, with a minimum coverage of USD35,000 for the duration of their stay in the Philippines https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1167070
Just renewed 4 days ago. Didn't have show anything. Same like before Covid-19.Yes, there is a slight difference. You can't choose between regular or express like before. So cost 3000 for one month extention. After that I don't know. Why express ? Their weird logic is in case they change the rules again in Manila. Gesendet von meinem M2101K6G mit Tapatalk
No. Just arrived. So as usual they give you only one month for a start. Only later 2 months. Will see if this still the case. Gesendet von meinem M2101K6G mit Tapatalk
The 3000 peso you paid is for 2 month, arrival date and 2 months forward, first month is only free if you leave the country again
Nope. First I got the usual 30 days on arrival. Now I got the extention for one month (cant get 2 month when you do your first ext.). Cost 3000 peso. Express is mandatory at the moment. Might change later to have a choice again. Regular or Express. Gesendet von meinem M2101K6G mit Tapatalk
Same here. I think it is only for the initial entry into the country. After that they don't seem to be asking for it...currently. Could change tomorrow though.
Turkish Airlines is looking for ALL the stuff found on the different pages to get here. My parents came over and they were strict on the covid test MUST BE PCR- checked at counter and the gate, asked about insurance, they provided their medicare and humanna cards and explained the coverage was more than required Checked the one health pass was filled out and submitted. In Manilla, customs/immigration hardly glanced at it. Helpful hint: have printouts or paper copies of documents- even at the airport they had problems connecting on-line. Off topic: once on the plane they realized Small seats (they commented Cebu Pacific was comfy)Bad food (actually spit out something they served) and passangers required masks while employees hang out behind bathroom with mask down and talking.
