All other countries, territories, or jurisdictions not mentioned are under the Yellow List.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnly Filipinos, balikbayan, and foreign nationals with long-term visas coming from green and yellow list countries may be allowed entry to the Philippines,\u201d said Morente. \u201cFollowing the latest resolution, tourists are still not allowed to enter the country,\u201d he clarified.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, despite the travel restrictions due to the Covid-19 Omicron variant, Morente shared that things are looking better in the international travel sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the numbers remain lower than pre-pandemic figures, international travelers both inbound and outbound doubled as compared to 2020,\u201d said Morente. \u201cLittle by little, the travel industry is recovering, and hopefully we see continued progress until 2022\u201d<\/p>\n
