Some may understandably view Manila as merely a stepping stone to more rural destinations the Philippines is famed for. However, those who are privy to the city’s secrets will readily attest to an array of hidden sanctuaries offering respite from the hustle and bustle of the region’s great metropolises.

This means Saudi residents can now visit the Philippines’ capital city of Manila, for both leisure and other purposes.

Required documents
Earlier the Philippine government had announced that One Health Pass no longer applies in lieu of the eArrival card. However, as of now, the authorities have now ruled out the requirement to fill out the eArrival card before boarding a flight to the Philippines as a “scan-and-go” system will instead be implemented. However, the government would set up special lanes in the country’s gateways for those who want to comply with the eArrival card. Please do refer to our eArrival Card article below for the latest development.
