A travel authority is still a requirement for non-Cavite residents who wish to visit Tagaytay City, Joint Task Force COVID-19 Shield Commander Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar said on Monday.

During a Laging Handa press briefing, Eleazar clarified that only those who are coming from Cavite will no longer be required to present a travel authority at checkpoints when entering Tagaytay City.

“While it is true na ‘yung Tagaytay, dineclare ng LGU nila na hindi na kailangan ‘yung travel pass pagpasok du’n, ‘yun po ‘yung manggagaling ng Cavite,” he clarified in the Laging Handa public briefing.

[Translation: While it is true that the local government of Tagaytay declared that travel passes are no longer needed in the area, such only applies to those coming from Cavite.]

“Dapat po may reason ka ng pagpunta. [….] Dapat kumuha ka pa rin ng travel authority,” he added.

[Translation: You should have a reason for your travel. [….] You must secure a travel authority.]
