ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PAYING PHILIPPINE TRAVEL TAX ONLINE

I paid thru www.tieza.gov.ph. You can also go direct to www.myeg.ph.

1. You need to supply the following:

a. An email address and mobile number 

b. Your passport number

c. Your plane ticket or booking refence number

d. Your destination and date of departure.

2. At present, there are only 2 payment methods, over-the-counter or via credit card/debit card.

3. I recommend you to pay via credit card or debit card to get an acknowledgement receipt immediately sent to the email address you supplied, within 5 minutes of paying online.

4. You need a printer to print 2 copies of the acknowledgement receipt from Tieza. The airline counter keeps a copy of the acknowledgement receipt. 

Note: The acknowledgement receipt with the Tieza logo is the one you need to print not the payment confirmation sent to you by email by myeg.

5. There are additional charges by paying online. 50 php is charged by the portal. 1.4% is charged by the credit card company. 

Why pay travel tax online? If you don't have enough time at the airport or you're travelling during high season, paying travel tax online may save you time lining up at the airport. 

If you're a Cebu Pacific passenger, you can pay travel tax at their portal. They charge 100 php fee. It's cheaper at myeg coz total additional charge is only 73.38 php.
