Rapid antigen tests done by healthcare workers can be used by arrivals

2022/4/8 英字

Travelers can use rapid antigen tests done by healthcare workers to comply with requirements to enter the country, Presidential Spokesperson Martin Andanar said Thursday.

In a brief statement Thursday, Andanar said the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) issued a new resolution Wednesday revising entry protocols for foreign travelers.

Under Resolution 165-F, IATF allowed overseas travelers to use rapid antigen tests administered and certified by a healthcare professional in a healthcare facility, laboratory, clinic, pharmacy, or other similar establishments from their country of origin to be allowed entry.

Before the IATF resolution was issued, a traveler must present a negative RT-PCR test taken within 48 hours prior to their date of departure from their country of origin to enter local ports.

Under IATF Resolution 164-a, arriving foreigners must show a negative antigen test against COVID-19 24 hours before the date of departure.

The new measure is expected to make it more convenient for travelers to enter the country. DMS
