Philippines Borders Opening for Australians

 

Philippines borders opening to Australians 10 Feb 2022

 

Yes, it’s finally happened! All of our many many clients who’ve been absolutely dying inside waiting to come to the Philippines to be with their Filipina sweethearts can now do it! Philippines borders are opening 10 February 2022 to:

  • Fully vaccinated Australians (ie you need your vaccination certificate)
  • Who have tested negative within two days days before flying
  • Apparently no quarantine required

Once again Australian passport holders will receive a 30 day visa-on-arrival. Your passport will be stamped, and you can stay 30 days.

 

What about COVID-19 and Omicron?

 

I hope that most of you will have read my last BLOG article on the topic of Omicron and what it really means? If not, please click HERE

IF this were a scary variant, do you think the Philippines would open its borders and say “Come in everyone!”? Would they say “Come and make our hospitals overflow with tourists?”

Not likely!

Clearly they are aware that this thing is in its end-days. And it’s time for everyone to start getting back to life in what we could call the new-normal. That means you will still need your masks and your commonsense when you’re here. 

And when you kiss your sweetheart at the airport, you will need kiss ONLY with a mask and a faceshield on.

JOKING!!!

No, use commonsense. Follow the rules. Mask. Sanitise hands. Avoid crowds. But please enjoy your loving relationships like normal people do! Live like normal people!

 

Should you ask Jeff technical questions about Philippines Immigration?

 

Only if you like receiving responses that say “Sorry, but that’s not my area”!

I’m educated, qualified and continually updated in Australian migration law and practical matters. I advise on that. Not the case with coming into the Philippines. So please watch the video below, as it will tell you more than I can.

It’s Saturday morning, and I don’t feel like transcribing a whole lot of stuff. I enjoy my wife and kids on the weekend. So forgive me being lazy. Please watch the Filipina Pea’s video for further details and facts about the borders opening.

And seriously, I would suggest that EVERYONE subscribes to her YouTube Channel. She has some very useful information for those in Australian Filipina relationships. Useful for both The Australian man and the Filipina lady.

I’ll leave you all to start booking flights, shall I??
