International travelers may soon face an additional fee when entering or leaving the Philippines as the Bureau of Immigration (BI) plans to implement a new border security system under a public-private partnership project. The fee will support the proposed Civil Aviation and Immigration Security Services (CAISS) project, which aims to modernize border management systems across 11 international airports, one international seaport, and six mobile border crossing stations. The Department of Transportation (DOTr) said airport fees will be reduced starting April 1, 2026, to help passengers deal with rising airfare costs caused by higher fuel prices. Transport Secretary Giovanni Lopez said the discount will apply to airports managed by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP). The agency said the airport fee discount will be in place for three months and may be extended after review.
