Filipino expats who are travelling home will have to undergo a slightly longer quarantine of five to seven days, as the Philippines removed the UAE from its green list. New PCR test requirements and Covid protocols for arriving passengers have also been laid out.
In the latest resolution that the Philippine government released on Friday, the UAE no longer appears on the green or red list, which likely means it is classified as ‘yellow’.
The new classification will come into effect on January 16 and will remain in place until January 31, according to the Philippines’ Inter-Agency Task Force’s (IATF) Resolution 157-B.
In a separate resolution issued on the same day, the IATF lists new Covid protocols for Filipinos flying in from red, yellow, and green list countries.
