The Philippines eTravel platform is a mandatory digital single-data collection portal established by the Philippine Government. It integrates health declaration data, immigration arrival information, and customs clearance declarations into a single unified QR code. All incoming international passengers (both foreign visitors and returning Philippine citizens) must register with eTravel before boarding flights to the Philippines.

Upon completing your eTravel submission, the system generates either a Green QR code or a Red QR code. A Green QR code signifies that your submission is complete, your health declarations are verified, and you are eligible for express lane processing at border control. A Red QR code indicates that manual document verification or secondary health screening is required by the Bureau of Quarantine upon arrival.

No. The eTravel card is purely an electronic border declaration and does not serve as an entry visa. Citizens of visa-waiver nations can enter the Philippines for up to 30 days without a visa provided they hold a passport valid for 6 months, an onward flight ticket, and an eTravel registration. Travelers requiring an entry visa must secure it from a Philippine consulate or eVisa platform.

No commercial service can guarantee entry into the Philippines. Final admission decisions are made solely by Bureau of Immigration officers at Manila Ninoy Aquino (MNL), Mactan-Cebu (CEB), or Clark (CRK) airports. NomadicMart is an independent application service not affiliated with the Philippine Government or etravel.gov.ph. We ensure your documentation is prepared accurately and queued on time.

The Philippine Government opens the official eTravel registration window 72 hours (3 days) before your scheduled departure. When you use NomadicMart, you can submit your travel itinerary weeks in advance, and our automated queue files your registration immediately as the 72-hour window opens, sending your QR code straight to your email.
