The Philippines' digital vaccine certificate, VaxCert PH is now recognized for entry to European Union states, the EU delegation in Manila said Saturday.
This will make it easier for travelers from the Philippines to enter the EU as VaxCert PH QR codes can be retrieved online in just a few minutes, compared to securing other forms of vaccine certification such as the Yellow Card from the Bureau of Quarantine.
"The European Union regards this as an important milestone in ensuring expedite and safe travel and people’s mobility”, said European Union Chargé d'Affaires Ana Isabel Sánchez Ruiz.
Conversely, Philippine immigration will recognize the EU digital vaccine certificate.
