The Philippine Embassy in Vientiane would like to inform the public that travelers to and from the Philippines are required to accomplish, within 72 hours prior to arrival or departure, the electronic Customs Baggage Declaration Form (e-CBDF) and electronic Currencies Declaration Form (e-CDF), as applicable, through the e-Travel website or the eGovPH application below:
For a seamless travel clearance, one QR code shall also be used in the e-Travel System starting 10 May 2024.
Upon arrival or before departure, passengers shall present their passports to the Immigration Officer for e-Travel registration confirmation and the QR Code to the Customs Officer for clearance.
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 into or taking out local and/or foreign currencies beyond the allowed threshold.
