Hi po, sa mga nakapagBM on PR visa, may question lang po. Aside from negative RT-PCR test, need po talaga ng medical certificate? Nakalagay sa Passenger Profile and Health Declaration form ng PAL. Or depende sa airline po? Thank you!

God bless sa flight ma'am, basta before departure lang po nabasa ko. Baka pwede na isabay sa Australian Declaration Form.
Di naman po need ng travel pass? Chineck ko rin po ung list prior to departure na nabanggit sa thread na 'to.
Laking help po, thank you.

try nyo kumuha ng vaccination certificate from BOQ or at least dala nyo vaccination card nyo pagpunta sa AU. di man yan requirement para makapasok ng AU pero maraming instances na required na may proof of vaccination para sa work/travel dito. not sure kung paano magiging system para mailagay yan sa immunisation record (kung may medicare) lalo na kung ibang brand ng vaccine ang ginamit sa inyo. sa ngayon pfizer, astrazeneca at moderna pa lang ang approved sa AU

Di ata puwede pag ibang vaccine. So far nga, wala pa moderna sa list.
Registering a vaccination received overseas
If you receive a COVID-19 Pfizer or AstraZeneca vaccine while overseas, you can register your vaccination on the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) when you return to Australia. At this time, if you've received a COVID-19 vaccine overseas which is not Pfizer or AstraZeneca, you cannot have it added to the AIR.
To register your vaccination in the AIR:
obtain proof of vaccination from your provider when you receive the vaccine
bring the proof of vaccination to Australia when you return. The proof must be translated to English if itโs in another language.
make sure your Medicare online account is up to date.
give the proof of vaccination along with your Medicare card to a recognised vaccination provider in Australia. Theyโll verify your vaccination status and add the record of vaccination to the AIR.

Pwede po kami ng husband ko hindi sabay nag initial entry. Hindi naman hanapin kung sino ang primary. Kung lahat naman kayo ay PR visa, ok lang kahit sino mauna
