When President Rodrigo Duterte announced that the National Capital Region (NCR) is under general community quarantine (GCQ), beach-deprived tourists from NCR started flocking in Boracay Island. Under the new order, NCR tourists can visit Boracay Island until the region is under GCQ, according to the president.

Meanwhile, Malay Tourism Office clarified that they would close borders if the quarantine status of NCR tightens or reverts to modified enhanced community quarantine (MECQ). And while the country still lives with COVID-19, Malay Mayor Floribar Bautista reminded leisure travelers to follow minimum health protocols against the virus.



Apart from the government’s implemented minimum health protocols, the Malay Tourism Office will still require NCR tourists to show a valid and negative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test result.

Furthermore, all domestic tourists coming to Boracay Island should secure a QR code and S-PaSS compliant with the Inter-Agency Task Force for Emerging Infectious Diseases guideline. Lastly, inbound tourists should individually fill out the Online Health Declaration Card at http://touristboracay.com/ and submit all requirements to touristboracay@gmail.com at least 12 hours or more before your travel.
