“This is in addition to other countries/territories/jurisdictions whose proofs of vaccination the IATF has already approved for recognition in the Philippines, and without prejudice to such other proofs of vaccination approved by the IATF for all inbound travelers,” acting presidential spokesperson Martin Andanar said in a statement.

Andanar said the IATF has directed the Bureau of Quarantine, Department of Transportation, and Bureau of Immigration to only accept the proof of vaccination approved only by the country’s pandemic task force. -gb
