Passengers already in transit from India and all those who have been to the same within 14 days immediately preceding arrival to the Philippines, who arrive before 0001H of 29 April 2021, shall not be subject to the above restriction, but shall nevertheless be required to undergo stricter quarantine and testing protocols, i.e., the observation of an absolute facility-based 14-day quarantine period notwithstanding a negative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) result.
