Notes:

Please submit your COMPLETE and CLEAR documents at least twenty-four (24) hours or more before your flight/travel to avoid delays. Due to volume of emails received, we cannot guarantee processing if you send your documents less than twenty-four (24) hours before your flight/travel. We are validating your documents with the vaccination centers, accommodation establishments and/or the laboratories and this takes some time. Please send only valid documents as falsification is punishable by law.

If you have not received any response within six (6) hours after you sent your documents from the validating team, please send another follow up email or contact:

Travel Info Aklan Assistance Center:  
Smart 09398780715
Globe 09755809013
Email travelinfo@aklan.gov.ph

Multiple tourist documents can be sent in one email. Just include a listing of the names of the tourists including infants and children.

5. Wait for the email response (successful or unsuccessful) of the Final Validator.

6. If processing is successful, a link to the copy of your HDC with Tourist QR Code will be sent back. Please IMMEDIATELY click the link to open and check if information is correct. Please be guided that the validators cannot edit or update any personal information that you have encoded and for corrections, you need to submit another OHDC and this may delay re-issuance of QR Code.

Keep the Tourist QR Code with you at all times. Have a printed or digital copy. The QR Code will be used in the ports of entry/exit (land, air, sea) as well as in accessing services in Boracay Island.

7. If processing is unsuccessful, an email will be sent to you requesting for additional requirements or clarification. Please immediately comply with this to avoid delays in the QR Code release.

8. Your Tourist QR Code has an expiry of twelve (12) hours from your accommodation checkout time. If you are extending your stay in Boracay Island, please send an email of a new booking slip showing the extension to touristboracay@gmail.com before your original checkout time.
