2022 Update! BAGUIO travel requirements for TOURISTS

Last updated: 18 MARCH 2022

Baguio City is now under ALERT level 1! great news for tourists planning a trip to the City of Pines because this indicates easing of restrictions and fewer requirements for the traveling public.

Baguio is actually among the first big cities to reopen to tourists with an organized, digital scheduling process, in an effort to accommodate visitors and revive the tourism in the city. Over the past two years, the list of requirements have changed — especially the inclusion of a negative test result, which comes and goes — depending on the local conditions and number of cases.

But some requirements are constant. For example, visitors are required to sign up for a Baguio VISITA account, schedule their visit, and follow the health protocols during their stay.

All travelers from areas under ALERT level 1 and 2. requirements differ for vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers. (See details below.)

Travelers 17 years old or below are NOT required to present proof of vaccination or testing as long as accompanied by vaccinated or checked adult.

The following are NOT allowed to enter Baguio City for now.

Travelers from ALERT level 4 and ALERT level 5 areas. The community quarantine status of your origin may change so ask the LGU for the current update. These restrictions may also change in the future.

Unvaccinated or partially vaccinated travelers from ALERT level 3. For Alert level 3, only fully vaccinated travelers are allowed. If you only got one shot of a two-dose vaccine, you are considered “partially vaccinated.”

List of BAGUIO travel REQUIREMENTS

Here are the requirements for fully VACCINATED tourists coming from ALERT level 1, 2 and 3, including the papers you need to get a QR-coded vacationer Pass:

Approved Baguio Visita QR-coded vacationer Pass (QTP) and confirmed schedule. You may need a valid ID and a recent photo to complete this. You’ll find a step-by-step guide on how to get a QTP below.

Valid ID. Government-issued.

Vaccination Certificate or Card. Here’s how to get a VaxCertPH. but LGU-issued vaccination cards are accepted, too.

Proof of accommodation. If you’re paying for your accommodation, book an establishment that is provided on Baguio VISITA. You can also find below a list of recognized hotels in Baguio.

Triage upon arrival. There is a central triage area, but some hotels and bus terminals have their own. a lot more info below.

For UNVACCINATED OR partially VACCINATED tourists from areas under Alert level 1 and 2, any of the following can be submitted in lieu of a vaccination certificate:

Negative test Result. This may be an RT PCR test done within 72 hours prior to arrival in Baguio. See list of recognized and licensed testing laboratories below or here!

Medical Certificate stating that the traveler is not eligible to receive COVID-19 vaccine, issued by the local health Officer.

Here’s an infographic by the Baguio LGU that summarizes the requirements:

Here are other crucial notes to keep in mind.

Schedule your visit at least one (1) day before your trip.

Only a limited number of travelers per day will be allowed entry so make sure you schedule your visit beforehand.

No QTP, no entry! QTP refers to the QR-coded vacationer Pass, which will be issued to you when you register or schedule your visit. No walk-ins or on-the-spot registration. travel only once you have a QTP.

What to Do before checking out Baguio

Here are the steps you need to take before your trip.

1. create a BAGUIO VISITA account.

To do this, go to the official web site of BAGUIO VISITA at visita.baguio.gov.ph.

Baguio VISITA is a new arm created by the local government, in collaboration with the department of tourism and the tourism Promotions Board, to facilitate vacationer processes in the city. VISITA stands for visitor information and travel Assistance.

The web site looks like this:

To sign up for an account, follow these steps:

Accomplish the sign-up form. enter your personal info (name, nationality, birth date, etc.), current address, and contact details.

Upload a valid ID and current photo for identification. a lot of government IDs like passport, SSS/UMID, driver’s license, senior citizen ID, and voter’s ID are accepted.

Read the data privacy and Consent Agreement. Click confirm if you accept the terms.

Check your email inbox. A verification link will be sent to your email address. Click on that and you’ll be redirected back to the VISITA website.

Login again to finalize verification process.

Det er det! You now have a BAGUIO VISITA account.

2. schedule a visit.

Logg inn på kontoen din. You will be greeted with an illustrated menu.

Click on schedule A VISIT. You will be presented a form.

Complete the scheduling form. You will be asked to supply details about your trip including your point of origin, purpose of travel, mode of transportation, your travel dates, your travel agency, your hotel or contact person in Baguio.

Accomplish the health declaration FORM. You will be asked questions about your current health (whether you’re experiencing symptoms), exposure history, and other scientific information. Click SUBMIT!

Upload a copy of your VACCINATION CARD/CERTIFICATE (if fully vaccinated) or negative test result (if not fully vaccinated). once you have uploaded the documents, click CONFIRM. Although your registration can still be processed even if you skip this step, it’s highly recommended that you publish a copy. Either way, you need to bring your vaccination card or test result when you travel as it will be checked at Triage on arrival day.

Finalize your application. After completing the health declaration Form, your application will be reviewed, which can take up to 24 hours.

Contact the accommodation establishment you booked. let them know that you have already scheduled a visit at the Baguio Visita web site and that you’re waiting for their approval. send them your name and all your companions’ full names. It must take up to 24 hours.

Check your email or log in to the Baguio Visita website. When your application is approved, you must receive an email confirmation with a link to a QR Coded vacationer Pass (QTP). You can also check the status on the VISITA dashboard.

Download your QR Coded vacationer Pass (QTP). This code is special to you and it consists of your name, photo, and travel dates in Baguio. You need to print it or save on your device.

The QTP is essential. You have to keep a copy with you in any way times when in Baguio because you will need to scan it at certain checkpoints including the triage area, hotel reception, and crucial attractions around the city.

The QTP looks like this:

3. Upon arrival, proceed to TRIAGE.

All tourists need to undergo triage when they arrive in Baguio City. There are central triage areas but some hotels and bus terminals have their own.

For yellow QTP, the triage area is at central Triage

For blue QT, you may proceed to your hotel or bus terminal for triage

Visitors who are showing symptoms, regardless of the test result or their vaccination status, will be tested, isolated, and referred to health officials for next steps.

4. follow all health and safety policies within the city.

Wear a face mask in any way times.

Observe physical distance of one meter.

Wash or sanitize your hands whenever possible.

Try to avoid crowded places as much as you can.

FREQUENTLY ASKED questions (FAQs):

Are children / minors allowed to visit?

Yes, if they’re coming from areas under Alert Levels 1 & 2. Minors are not required to present proof of vaccination or testing as long as they are accompanied by vaccinated or checked adult.

For those coming from areas under Alert level 3, vaccinated minors are allowed. We’re still trying to figure out if unvaccinated minors from Alert level 3 are OK. will update this part soon.

We’re traveling as a group. Does everyone need a QTP? Can we register as a group?

Every single traveler needs to have their own QTP. but the good news is, you can now register as a group. This is a newly implemented feature of the Baguio Visita website.

To do this, one member of the group needs to create a Baguio Visita account and schedule a visit. then follow these steps:

On the dashboard, go to MY travels tab.

Choose the trip you wish to add companions to and then tap the 3 dots next to it.

Choose add companion on the prompt that would pop up. You will be directed to the MY COMPANIONS page.

Add a automobile or add a companion for each vehicle. then input the details for the automobile or each
companion accordingly.

Note that your companions must be staying at the same place on the same travel dates.

If you’re staying at a hotel/accommodation establishment, you can add up to 9 companions and up to 2 vehicles.

If you don’t have an accommodation booking, you can add up to 4 companions on one vehicle.

Once approved, each member of the group will get their own special QTP.

I still have not received a QTP. It’s been days but my schedule is still not approved. Hva kan jeg gjøre?

Contact the accommodation establishment that you booked. It is normally the accommodation management that approves QTP applications. let them know that you have already completed the Baguio Visita registration and scheduling process and that you’re just waiting for their approval on their end. Don’t forget to send the names of all your companions.

This happened to us. We were waiting a long time so we reached out to the hotel. They also could not approve my companions’ applications because they didn’t have their names. but once I sent them the names, they were immediately approved.

There were some other quirks, too. On another instance, the hotel management asked us to practically re-do the application because the Triage site assigned to us was at another hotel. We wouldn’t have known this if we didn’t contact them directly.

If you’re not booked with a hotel, contact Baguio Visita through the following:

(074) 446 2009 (7am – 11pm)

0956 572 9097 (7am – 3pm)

0956 572 9093 (3pm -11pm)

0956 572 9094 (11pm – 7am)

I’ll be staying at 2 different hotels within one trip. how do I choose two hotels on Baguio Visita?

You can’t choose two accommodation establishments on just one application. If you’re moving to another hotel in the middle of your trip, you need to schedule two separate Baguio Visita trips.

This is also based on personal experience. due to room availability issues, we had to book two hotels. We were asked to create two separate schedules on the Baguio Visita website, received two QTPs, and underwent triage twice.

Are there available public transportation options to Baguio?

Yes, visit this page for your options: BAGUIO BUS SCHEDULE!

Within the city, taxis and jeepneys are all operational.
