1) The registration opens 48 hours now. Not sure when they changed from 24 hours.
2) Upon registration with covid test results and Vaccination certificate (I have used the Australian medicare express app to generate an international certificate), received an e-mail with a barcode almost instantly.
3) I will attempt to complete the health declaration online around 24 hours mark. I am sure my departure time is considered from mel than Syd as it is a single itinerary ticket.
Will keep posted here about the airport experiences and some FRs.

Posts: 5Positive Covid Test when leaving Philippines
I can seem to find any info on what happens if you test positive for Covid for your flight back to the USA Do you have to quarantine? For how long? And how bad are the quarantine facilities. Not to be negative, but would like to know what happens if this should occur.

The old system generated a barcode when you initially applied, a qr code when you were clear to fly. The new system generates a barcode when you're clear to fly, a qr code when you're clear for the express lane.
Que the confusion when I had to argue at check in on the London Heathrow to muscat leg of my trip. Barcode, no qr code. And they haven't been told of the new system. Literally the boq letter (will try to attach, if I don't have to resize it) I screenshotted was the only thing to swing it.
The qr code for the express Lane was generated precisely on time. Four hours before the muscat manila leg of my journey.

Posts: 499Yes, thanks for details, sounds crazy.
I just copy here her conclusion, the most important being the confusion between departure and arrival in the wording but the real check is made on arrival. So access allowed only 24 h before arrival.
Good luck for long range travelers.

These videos are from a Filipina named Jennifer Terri. She's great. She takes a direct shot at the BOQ for the recent kerfufle. The basic issue is this: The new OHP registration must be done within 24 hours of your arrival (not departure). That is not possible for passengers coming from the US (their flights might depart well before the 24-hour window starts). Error message from the OHP registration site, if trying to register before the prior 24-hour window before arrival:
"Thank you for indicating the date of your arrival. However, registration is only allowed within 24 hours prior your departure. Please come back and register within 24 hours before your actual arrival in Philippines".
Some strong word quotes from Jennifer below, and screen caps from the video:
"This video is not just addressed to travelers, to guide them, but also to government agencies responsible for this One Health Pass. You have some work to do, because of right now its complicated, its a mess". Ouch.
"Obviously whoever made this updates are not travelers. You're not thinking, you're not in the shoes of the travelers. You did not consider travelers coming from the US and Europe". Ouch.

Posts: 462OHP site is now allowing 48 hours before arrival date.
As I will get a RAT in the day before I think I will still wait until I can complete the OHP in one submission.
It doesn't show if I can edit the submission to add the later RAT result.

Posts: 6802In its infancy
The latest updates to entry policy. I went to the horse's mouth, the BOQ website, and looked at "Travel Requirements to the Philippines":
https://quarantine.doh.gov.ph/travel...e-philippines/
Unfortunately, its dated April 12 (3 weeks ago), and not up-to-date for their own new policy (May 4). See pic.

In other news, in an attempt to get info about incoming requirements, I wrote directly to the departments (BI, BOQ, and DOH) in email asking questions. Each replied, telling me to contact one of the others regarding this or that issue. When I did contact the correct department (as instructed, ie, BOQ), there was no reply to my question. I have been emailing once each 4-5 days for almost a month.

And the only reason I'm in and waiting for the first leg of my flight is a screenshot I took on the train of a Bureau of Quarantine letter that appeared in the YouTube video I linked to earlier in the thread.
Give it a few days!

The dropdown appeared within the online registration form. If your country is on the visa waiver list (many are) you do not need to involve the Phil Embassy in anything.
Just make sure you have all the requirements covered (and update your OHP as per current rules).

Posts: 499Entry rules (for french citizen)
But when I look to the rules published here in France for entering to Philippines I only find these rules, no special application is mentioned. Surely I miss something here.
As of April 1, 2022, fully vaccinated foreign nationals are allowed to enter the Philippines for tourism or business travel under the following conditions:
Present a negative RT-PCR test result within 48 hours or an antigenic test within 24 hours prior to departure;.
Be in possession of an International Vaccination Certificate (ICV) issued by the WHO, a Philippine Vaccination Certificate (VaxCertPH), or an electronic vaccination certificate recognized by the Philippine authorities (the French national vaccination certificate is recognized by the Philippine authorities since December 29, 2021);.
Hold a passport valid for at least six months at the time of arrival;.
Have a return ticket to your country of origin or your next country of destination within 30 days of your arrival in the Philippines;.
Have travel insurance covering Covid-19 (minimum coverage of USD 35,000);.
Perform self-monitoring of symptoms until the 7th day after arrival. If symptoms appear during this period, the traveler is obliged to report to the local authorities (Barangay);.
Minors under 12 years of age are exempt from the vaccination requirement, and are subject to the same measures as their parent or guardian.
The following arrival measures apply to 9 (a) (Temporary Visitor's Visa) holders:
Present a negative RT-PCR test result performed less than 48 hours prior to departure;.
Have an International Vaccination Certificate (ICV) issued by the WHO, a Philippine Certificate of Vaccination (VaxCertPH), or an electronic vaccination certificate recognized by the Philippine authorities (the French national vaccination certificate is recognized by the Philippine authorities since December 29,2021);.
Perform self-monitoring of symptoms until the 7th day of their arrival. If symptoms appear during this period, the traveler is obliged to report to the local authorities (Barangay);.
Partially or unvaccinated travelers will be subject to quarantine in a facility or hotel approved by the Philippine authorities until the results of an RT-PCR test conducted on the fifth day, followed by quarantine at home until the 14th day after arrival (a reservation of accommodation for at least six days at a quarantine center or hotel approved by the authorities will be required);.
Non-vaccinated minors are subject to the same measures as their parent or guardian.

Found an up to date guide. I'm at the point of having a barcode, but no QR code. Which the video assures me will allow me to fly, but not use the express lane at Manila and have to go through a manual verification there.
If nobody is actually going to check and verify my uploaded documents before I fly (I could have uploaded a picture of my dick for all they know at this point), what's the point of the whole thing other than some express lane of dubious benefit?
Be attempting to check in in about four hours for the first leg of my journey. I suspect the airlines won't just be accepting the barcode as the video guide claims. I imagine they will be wanting to check everything I have in place.
