Philippine Airports – Terminal Fee, Travel Tax & Flights Guide

Philippine Airports – Terminal Fee, Travel Tax & Flights Guide

Are you traveling in the Philippines or abroad? There are some important things to know before you fly.

This detailed guide answers frequently asked questions about Philippine airports and flights.

Philippine terminal fee + travel tax

Here’s a lowdown on fees that you might have to pay at airports in the Philippines. Followed by helpful tips about individual airports.

What is the terminal fee? Do I need to pay at the airport?

You need not worry about the terminal fee if you are arriving at any airport in the Philippines. The terminal fee should already be included in the flight ticket price upon booking for both domestic and international flights.

The airport terminal fee or “Philippine passenger service charge” (DPSC) is an airport tax/exit fee for passengers departing from airports in the Philippines. Overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) are exempted from paying the terminal fee. The terminal fee ranges from P50 to P220 per person for domestic flights or P600 to P1,135 per person for international flights.

What is PH Travel Tax?

The Philippine travel tax is a fee for Filipinos traveling abroad. The full travel tax is P1,620 for passengers on economy class plane tickets and P2,700 when flying first class. You need not worry about the travel tax if you’re a foreigner traveling in the Philippines on a short visit or simply transiting as this fee only applies to citizens of the Philippines, permanent resident aliens, and non-immigrant aliens who have stayed in the Philippines for a period of not less than one year. You can check TIEZA’s website for the full details on PH travel tax exemptions and reduced fees.

PH Travel Tax Online Payment

Selected airlines including Cebu Pacific offer the option of paying the Philippine Travel Tax online on their website. This is highly recommended if you want to skip lining up at the airport. You can also pay the travel tax online on the  TIEZA Online Travel Tax Payment System (OTTPS) website.

The Manila Airport is the busiest airport and the main international gateway to the Philippines. Commonly referred to as “NAIA” or Ninoy Aquino International Airport, it is located in the cities of Pasay and Parañaque, within the Metro Manila area in Luzon Island (Northern Philippines).

Before you go

How do I know if the terminal fee is included in the airline booking?

Check the breakdown of taxes and fees on your booking receipt or when booking the flight ticket. The terminal fee is usually labeled as PH Passenger Service Charge, Domestic Passenger Service Charge or International Passenger Service Charge. There’s usually also a corresponding Aviation Security Fee (ASF) and separate Value Added Tax for the terminal fee.

Do I still need to pay the terminal fee, even after paying the travel tax?

Yes, the terminal fee and travel tax are separate fees. If you’re not exempted, then you need to pay both.

Do I need to pay the terminal fee and travel tax when I arrive in the Philippines?

The airport terminal fee and Philippine Travel Tax does not apply to arriving passengers.

Don’t leave yet. There’s more!

I am foreign passport holder. Should I pay airport tax terminal fee and phillipines travel tax? Thanks ☺

May 15, 2016 at 5:53 pm

If you have a single journey ticket, I’m not sure if you have to pay, but if you are changing airlines or if you’re required to check-in for your next flight then you may have to pay the international terminal fee. The Philippine travel tax is mostly for Philippine residents.

taxinternational travel is 1,620 in pesos thats the full payment is it require to pay even after 6months you arrived in manila and you are going out again another 1,620

May 16, 2016 at 3:37 am

Hello Gloria,

If you are required to pay the PH travel tax, you may have to pay this fee for every departure regardless of the time between your flights. It is charged specifically for every plane ticket. You can read more info about it at http://tieza.gov.ph/travel-tax/ .

hi, im an OFW , me and my mom and bb will travel to HK for holiday via CEbupacific airways in the tkts it says passenger service charge and TAXES AND FEES PH Passenger Service Charge – PHP 491.07 – is this the terminal fee? Hong Kong Airport Construction Fee – PHP 577.94 Air Passenger Departure Tax – PHP 770.59 – is this the travel tax? Security Surcharge – PHP 288.97 and i want to ask also , since im OFW am i exempted with this taxes (terminal and travel tax going to HK for holiday?)

February 1, 2017 at 9:52 pm

I’ll breakdown the list so it’s easier to go through them.

PH Passenger Service Charge – PHP 491.07 – is this the terminal fee?

This I believe is the PH airport terminal fee. There should be another item called the “PH PSC Value Added Tax: 58.93,” which usually amounts to P58.93. So, the total is the P550 terminal fee.

This terminal fee should be refundable for OFWs with OEC.

Air Passenger Departure Tax – PHP 770.59 – is this the travel tax?

This is a HK$120 fee charged in Hong Kong, not in the Philippines.

Hi i am traveling to singapore next week. First time ko.. Magkanu babayaran kong travel tax, and do i need to pay terminal fees?. Mejo nervous kc aq as a first timer eh,, sana matulungan m ko.. Saka do i need to fill up embarkation card and where to get it ba… Your reply is going to be a good help.,

February 23, 2017 at 5:27 pm

P1,620 po yung travel tax per person for economy class tickets. Sa airport po yan binabayaran. Kung galing ka Manila Airport, hindi na kelangan mag bayad ng terminal fee sa airport kase nabayaran na po yan sa ticket.

Yung embarkation card before arriving in Singapore, usually dini-distribute po yan during the flight. Sakali wala sa flight mo, naka lagay lang yan sa immigration checkpoint sa Singapore.

Safe trip Lovelie!

April 23, 2017 at 8:56 am

You don’t need to pay the terminal fee when you arrive in the Philippines. If you’re flying out of Davao, you need to pay the terminal fee at the airport. If you’re flying from Manila, no need to pay. The fee is already included in the ticket price. See the list of terminal fee prices above.

There seems to be a bit of a confusion (mix up) here … Under “Airport terminal fee” you wrote: “You do not have to pay the terminal fee if you are on a flight from Manila, Caticlan (Boracay), or a domestic flight from Cebu.” and again under “Popular Philippine Airports” you wrote: Cebu-Mactan (CEB) Domestic – Included in flight ticket. International – P750. But … under “Mactan–Cebu International Airport (CEB)” you wrote: “The Cebu Airport passenger terminal fee is P750 per person for domestic flights. If you are on an international flight, you do not have to pay the terminal fee since it should already be paid for / included in the plane ticket price, at the time of booking.” This is the total opposite of the first two. So which is correct? Also if you go international but is required to change plane, like Cebu to Manila, then Manila to Bangkok, do you have to first pay Domestic then International terminal fees or do you pay the International terminal fee twice? Once in Cebu (750) and again (as included in ticket) in Manila?

May 14, 2017 at 5:17 pm

The first one is correct. Thanks for pointing out the error Luigi.

Just did a mock online booking for a Cebu-Manila-Bangkok flight, only the P750 PH international terminal fee shows up on the receipt. So, you might have to pay the terminal fee (for international flights) ONLY ONCE & it’s already included in the total price, upon purchase. This assumes that the whole journey is on a single plane ticket, and not two separate tickets.

If you booked a Cebu – Manila flight ticket, and another Manila – Bangkok flight ticket … You might have to pay the domestic terminal fee in Cebu, and international terminal fee in Manila. Both should already be included in the total price, upon purchase. So, you don’t need to pay at the airport. If both flights are on the same airline, on the same day, best to ask the airport/airline staff if you can get a refund for your Cebu-Manila terminal fee… If they are on different airlines & on different dates, you will need to pay both.

You only pay the international terminal fee once.

Do I need to pay all these fees when booking Philippine Airlines? Passenger service charge usd 11, airport construction fee usd 12, airport passenger security chare usd 6, Air passenger departure tax usd 16, is this what they called travel tax and do we need to pay coz we’re on European passports? Many thanks if someone can answer our queries.

September 22, 2017 at 9:00 am

The “travel tax” commonly mentioned on this page is the Philippine Travel Tax . It mostly applies to Philippine citizens traveling abroad and foreigners on long-term PH visa.

If you are visiting the PH for a short time, you shouldn’t need to worry about it. It is paid at the airport not when you book your flight online anyways.

Those fees you mentioned are probably mandatory airport/gov’t fees. So yes, you may need to pay all of them.

You only need to pay the terminal fee is it’s not already included in the ticket fare (on purchase). All airlines have started to include terminal fee in the price of the ticket recently.

May tax and departure fee pa po bang babayaran sa Hong Kong Airport pag uwi namin sa Manila or kasama na sya ticket?

Ito po yung nakalagay sa ticket namin. Air Asia po yung airline.

Flight 2x Guests 11340.00 PHP International Passenger Service Charge – 1100.00 PHP (departure fee of ph or hk?) Airport Construction Fee – 1140.00 PHP (this is hk right?) Airport Tax – 1980.00 PHP (ito po ba yung included airport tax sa hong kong? so mag babayad pa kami ng tax & departure fee dito sa ph pag alis?)

Sorry, I’m just confused and needed answers. Thank you in advance!

Very expensive travel tax and terminal fee but you cannot see any progress here in Philippines. Everywhere you go, there is fee! Unlike in other countries they are not collecting any terminal fee fee from customer.

July 15, 2018 at 6:02 pm

Hi Trisha, all airports around the world charge terminal fees and taxes, you just don’t notice it because it’s already included in the airfare. As for the travel tax for international Pinoy travelers, PH Gov’t should really make an exception for ASEAN flights, which will encourage more intra-regional tourism activities/spending.

Hi Celeste,

You can check the link to TIEZA’s website that I provided on the article. Here the link in case you missed it: http://tieza.gov.ph/travel-tax/

Details are posted there on exemptions. Here is what i found:

—– Who may be exempted from paying the Travel Tax? The following Filipino citizens are exempted from the payment of travel tax pursuant to Sec. 2 of PD 1183, as amended:

Overseas Filipino workers Filipino permanent residents abroad whose stay in the Philippines is less than one year Infants (2 years and below) —–

All airports charge a terminal fee. Most airports in the world charge way more than any airport in the Philippines. They just include the terminal fee in your ticket price so you don’t see it. In any case, for international flights from Mactan Cebu, purchased since 1st September this year, they have the terminal fee included in the ticket price now.

You can have your terminal fee refunded at the terminal fee payment counters in Mactan Cebu Airport. Just make sure you have your OEC with you, and your boarding pass stamped by the airline for refund, when you approach the counter.

Travel Tax Philippines [Latest Rates: 2024]

As the saying goes, ‘The only certainties in life are death and taxes,’ and if you’re planning to travel out of the Philippines, you’ll have to deal with the latter before you can enjoy your trip.

You’re probably aware that the Philippine government imposes a travel tax on citizens, residents, and foreigners who have stayed in the country for over a year, but you might not know the intricacies of who needs to pay, how much it costs, or how it could affect your travel plans.

Whether you’re booking a leisurely vacation, gearing up for a business trip, or sending off your loved ones, it’s crucial that you’re familiar with the requirements and process of this tax.

As you consider the impact on your budget and prepare for your journey, you’ll find that understanding the nuances of the Travel Tax can help you avoid common pitfalls, and there are some tips and tricks that could save you time, money, and hassle.

Key Takeaways

  • Travel tax is a levy imposed on individuals departing from the Philippines to support tourism infrastructure and cultural heritage preservation.
  • Certain individuals, such as overseas contract workers, returning residents, and former Filipino citizens, may be exempt from paying the travel tax.
  • The Travel Tax Exemption Certificate (TEC) can be applied for online through the TIEZA website, and the original passport must be presented.
  • Travel tax rates vary depending on destination, ticket class, and traveler category, and the TIEZA website provides detailed information on current rates and applicable passenger categories.

Understanding Travel Tax

To grasp the concept of travel tax in the Philippines, it’s essential to know that certain individuals may be exempt, but you’ll need to visit the TIEZA website to understand the specific requirements.

Instituted by Presidential Decree (PD), the travel tax is a levy imposed on individuals departing from the Philippines. It’s designed to bolster tourism infrastructure and cultural heritage preservation.

However, you might qualify for a Travel Tax Exemption. To determine your eligibility, you’ll have to present your original passport for any application related to the exemption.

This is an indispensable step, ensuring that your identity and travel records are accurately assessed.

Should you find that you’re eligible, TIEZA’s online portal simplifies the process by allowing you to apply for a Travel Tax Exemption Certificate (TEC) from the comfort of your home.

This digital convenience saves you time, making your travel preparations more efficient.

Lastly, don’t forget to check the Consulate General’s website for any holidays that might affect consular service availability.

Knowing these dates in advance can prevent any unwelcome surprises during your travel tax exemption application process.

Who Needs to Pay Travel Tax in the Philippines?

You might wonder if you’re on the hook for travel tax when heading out of the Philippines.

It’s key to know if you fall under the category of travelers who must pay, or if you meet the exemption criteria.

Let’s take a look at who’s obligated to pay and what conditions might let you off the hook.

Eligible Travelers

Understanding who must pay the travel tax when departing from the Philippines is crucial, as it generally includes all travelers except for certain exempted groups like returning residents and overseas contract workers.

If you’re planning to leave the country, you’ll likely need to settle this tax unless you belong to an eligible group.

Here’s what you need to remember:

  • Always have your Philippine Passport ready to verify your identity and travel tax eligibility.
  • Returning residents can avail of the exemption, keeping more cash in their pockets.
  • Overseas Contract Workers (OCW) are spared from the tax, a small relief for their global contributions.
  • Former Filipinos also enjoy exemption privileges, easing their visits back to their roots.
  • Visit the TIEZA website for a full rundown on exemptions and apply online for a Travel Tax Exemption Certificate (TEC).

Exemption Criteria

While most travelers must budget for the travel tax, certain groups may find themselves exempt, sparing them this additional cost before departure.

The exemption criteria for the travel tax in the Philippines benefit returning residents, overseas contract workers (OCW), and former Filipino citizens.

To enjoy these exemptions, it’s essential to present your original passport in all cases. You can apply for the Travel Tax Exemption Certificate (TEC) online through the TIEZA platform.

Rates and Categories

You’ll find that travel tax rates in the Philippines vary, with specific categories of passengers eligible for different rates or exemptions.

It’s essential to understand which category you fall into, as this determines how much you’ll need to pay, or if you’re exempt altogether.

The TIEZA website offers detailed information on the current tax rates and applicable passenger categories, ensuring you’re well-informed before your trip.

Current Tax Rates

To determine your travel tax, it’s essential to know that rates vary depending on your destination, ticket class, and traveler category. The Travel Tax in the Philippines, collected by TIEZA, applies to international travelers.

Here are the current tax rates you should be aware of:

Applicable Passenger Categories

Understanding the current tax rates is crucial. Now let’s focus on which passenger categories these rates apply to and what exemptions may be available for you.

If you’re a returning resident, an overseas contract worker (OCW), or a former Filipino, you might be exempt from travel tax when your air ticket is issued.

Remember, this tax is a levy on individuals departing the Philippines, but exemptions are there to alleviate the financial burden for specific groups.

To claim your exemption, check out the TIEZA website for the necessary requirements. You’ll need to present your original passport without exception.

TIEZA’s online platform allows you to apply for the Travel Tax Exemption Certificate (TEC). Conditions and limitations do apply, so make sure to review them thoroughly on TIEZA’s website.

Exemptions and Privileges

Often, travelers departing from the Philippines aren’t required to pay the travel tax if they meet certain conditions listed on the TIEZA website.

This levy imposed on travelers can be fully or partially exempted, granting you some financial relief as you embark on your journey.

To vividly paint the picture for you, here are some key points about the exemptions and privileges that could apply to your travel plans:

  • Filipino Overseas Workers are fully exempt from the travel tax, lightening their financial burden.
  • Filipino students studying abroad can apply for a fifty percent (50%) exemption, making their educational journey more affordable.
  • Diplomats and officials of international organizations enjoy a full waiver, acknowledging their global service.
  • Infants aged two years and below don’t have to pay the tax, easing travel for young families.
  • Athletes and delegates attending international competitions sanctioned by the Philippine Sports Commission may be granted full exemption as a form of support.

Remember to check the TIEZA website for the complete list of exemptions and privileges and to apply for your Travel Tax Exemption Certificate (TEC) online.

Don’t miss out on these opportunities to save on your travel expenses!

Payment Process

While you may qualify for an exemption from the Philippine travel tax, it’s essential to know the steps for paying it if required.

Should you not be eligible for an exemption, or you’re simply preparing for your travel requirements, understanding the payment process is crucial.

To begin with, you’ll need to visit the official website of the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA).

TIEZA is responsible for managing travel tax collections in the Philippines. On their website, you’ll find clear instructions and the necessary forms for the payment process.

You’re required to present your original passport when making the payment, which serves as your primary identification. This ensures that the travel tax is correctly attributed to you as the traveler.

For your convenience, TIEZA also offers an online platform for processing payments. This means you can settle your travel tax from the comfort of your home or office.

After completing the online transaction, ensure to print out the confirmation or receipt provided.

Lastly, keep in mind the place of payment when planning your travel tax settlement. While the online option is often the most convenient, TIEZA has authorized physical locations where payments can be made in person if needed.

Impact on Travel Budget

Securing a travel tax exemption can significantly reduce your expenses, allowing for a more cost-effective trip from the Philippines.

As you’re planning your journey, knowing that you mightn’t have to shoulder the additional cost of travel tax can be a relief.

This is especially true for eligible individuals who are leaving the country, as the Philippine government has provisions to ease the financial burden of travel.

Here’s how the exemption can impact your travel budget:

  • Extra funds for travel essentials : With the savings from the tax exemption, you can allocate more money for other travel necessities.
  • Increased travel opportunities : The money saved could enable you to visit additional destinations or extend your trip.
  • Budget-friendly fares : Use the exemption to offset the cost of airfare, possibly allowing you to opt for more convenient or direct flights.
  • Accommodation upgrades : Redirect the funds to enhance your stay with better accommodation options.
  • Cultural experiences : Spare cash means more opportunities to immerse yourself in cultural events or local cuisine.

Avoiding Common Issues

To steer clear of complications when claiming your travel tax exemption in the Philippines , ensure you’re familiar with the necessary requirements and have your original passport on hand.

It’s crucial to be aware that the Philippine government mandates this document for all exemptions without exception. So, don’t forget it!

Also, stay informed about the operational hours and official holidays to plan your visit to the Consulate General, avoiding unnecessary setbacks.

This preparation helps you tackle any issues head-on and ensures you’re not caught off-guard.

Moreover, before setting off on your journey, whether within the country or outbound, understand the fuel surcharge and its associated refund policies.

Such knowledge will ease your travel experience, letting you manage your finances more effectively.

Additionally, delve into the fare conditions and services offered by your carrier, paying close attention to those concerning oxygen service and unaccompanied minors.

This step is particularly important if you’re traveling from or within an Enterprise Zone. Being well-informed prevents misunderstandings and guarantees that you receive the services you expect from your chosen airline.

In conclusion, don’t let the Travel Tax in the Philippines gobble up your wallet like a ravenous beast! Secure your exemption like a savvy traveler and guard your precious funds.

Remember, every peso saved is a victory against the monstrous jaws of travel expenses. So, be proactive, leap onto TIEZA’s website, and snatch that Travel Tax Exemption Certificate with the agility of a ninja.

Make your travel budget bulletproof and your adventures absolutely epic!

Foreign tourists don't pay travel tax. Are you a tourist?

SIN-MNL. No more taxes needed.

MNL-SIN. As mentioned by Keg, you need not pay anything if you bought your tickets after 31st Jan.

If you are still concern, just prepare P1000 with you.

Yes I am a foreigner and a tourist. I only stay here 4 days. It would be great if me and my wife could save 1100 PHP in total as well as the travel tax.

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PAYING PHILIPPINE TRAVEL TAX ONLINE

June 16, 2023

I paid thru www.tieza.gov.ph. You can also go direct to www.myeg.ph.

1. You need to supply the following:

a. An email address and mobile number 

b. Your passport number

c. Your plane ticket or booking refence number

d. Your destination and date of departure.

2. At present, there are only 2 payment methods, over-the-counter or via credit card/debit card.

3. I recommend you to pay via credit card or debit card to get an acknowledgement receipt immediately sent to the email address you supplied, within 5 minutes of paying online.

4. You need a printer to print 2 copies of the acknowledgement receipt from Tieza. The airline counter keeps a copy of the acknowledgement receipt. 

Note: The acknowledgement receipt with the Tieza logo is the one you need to print not the payment confirmation sent to you by email by myeg.

5. There are additional charges by paying online. 50 php is charged by the portal. 1.4% is charged by the credit card company. 

Why pay travel tax online? If you don't have enough time at the airport or you're travelling during high season, paying travel tax online may save you time lining up at the airport. 

If you're a Cebu Pacific passenger, you can pay travel tax at their portal. They charge 100 php fee. It's cheaper at myeg coz total additional charge is only 73.38 php.
