Along with other provinces in Region 1, Pangasinan has reopened its doors to tourists. The provincial government has restarted allowing entry for tourists provided that they comply with all the requirements and follow the health and safety protocols.

Two of the requirements that you should take care of prior to your trip are the S-Pass and Tara Na! website registration. The latter is where you need to schedule your visit prior to your intended travel date and submit the required documents.

In this post are the things you must know and steps you have to take if you’re planning to visit Pangasinan.

Only tourists coming from areas under ALERT LEVELS 1-3 are allowed to visit.

For persons below 18 and over 65, point-to-point travel, staycation and outdoor exercises are allowed if fully vaccinated.
