Passengers will now only have to present one QR code in all international airports nationwide starting May 10 for seamless immigration and customs clearance.
“In the past, separate QR Codes were generated for the Bureau of Immigration and Bureau of Customs purposes,” the BOC said in a message to GMA News Online on Friday, explaining the new scheme. “However, following the recent system update, the BOC is now fully integrated with e-Travel. As a result, only one QR Code is now generated, which encompasses all declaration requirements for Immigration, Quarantine, and Customs.
“The e-CBDF must be filled out by all arriving passengers, while the e-CDF is filled out by arriving and departing passengers when they are bringing in or taking out local and/or foreign currencies beyond the allowed threshold,” said the BOC in a Thursday statement. Further, the BOC advised travelers who take out or bring in foreign currencies more than or equivalent to US $10,000 to declare the whole amount in the e-CDF.
