Philippines — eTravel registration is mandatory

All arriving passengers must complete the free eTravel registration online. The window opens 72 hours prior to arrival in the Philippines; passengers leaving the country register in the same 72-hour window before departure. The QR code is shown at check-in and at the border. Only etravel.gov.ph is official — lookalike sites charge money for a free service.
