From the Manila, Philippines report, Filipinos and certain foreign passport holders traveling overseas may now pay their travel tax through the one-stop shop eGovPH Super App. The travel tax declaration integration into both the government mobile application and the eTravel system was formally launched in a ceremony led by the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) in Pasay City on Thursday.
The report said that this centralized, secure, and user-friendly digital platform simplifies the payment process for Filipinos and foreign nationals departing the country, eliminating the need for in-person transactions at airport counters and significantly enhancing the overall passenger experience,” the Department of Tourism (DOT) said in a media release.
The report added that this type of tax is imposed on Filipinos, taxable foreign passport holders, and foreigners who have stayed in the Philippines for more than one year. The full travel tax rates range from PHP1,620 to PHP2,700 for first-class and economy-class passage, respectively.
In addition, the application allows users to make transactions and pay for government services without the need to go to offices. The signing was witnessed by Anti Red Tape Authority (ARTA) Secretary Ernesto Perez and Tourism Undersecretary Shahlimar Hofer Tamano.
