Pasig QR Code Registration: How to Register using Pasig Pass

Pasig QR Code is a component of Pasig City's contact tracing solution, the Pasig Pass (PasigPass). Find out how to register here.

(UPDATED 12/03/2022) Since November 17, 2020, the City Government of Pasig has mandated the use of the Pasig Pass in all city establishments via Ordinance No. 49, Series of 2020, also known as the Pasig Pass Ordinance.

Pasig City still uses the Pasig Pass as their premiere contact tracing system as of February 2022.

People will no longer have to fill out health declaration forms or logbooks if they utilize the Pasig Pass. They will merely need to present their Pasig Pass QR codes and have them scanned while accessing businesses and establishments within the City.

According to the Pasig LGU, the QR code generated by the Pasig Pass is not only limited to people with mobile phones but can also be printed. Some barangays have taken the initiative to help their constituents register for Pasig Pass. Therefore individuals without internet access or mobile phones can ask for their assistance to obtain a QR Code.

What is the purpose of Pasig Pass?

Pasig Pass (or PasigPass) is Pasig City's QR Code-based COVID-19 contact tracking system, which is an integral element of the Pasig Health Monitor. It is a web­based solution that allows individuals to log their basic personal information upon registration.

Once the registration is complete, the individuals will be given a unique Pasig Pass generated QR Code, which they can save on their smartphone or print for a physical copy. 

When a registered establishment scans a unique Pasig Pass QR code, their personal information is transmitted immediately to Pasig City Health Monitor for more effective contact tracing of persons who may have been in contact with a COVID-19 positive individual.

Individuals and businesses in Pasig can register for the Pasig Pass web portal at https://pasigpass.pasigcity.gov.ph/ to support the city's contact tracing efforts.

What is Pasig QR Code?

The Pasig Pass QR Code is a machine-readable matrix barcode generated via the Pasig Pass web portal. It retains the registered individual's information and can be scanned with a QR scanner or a smartphone with a built-in camera.

Since the LGU enacted a "NO PASIG PASS QR Code, NO ENTRY" policy, it is needed upon admission to business establishments in Pasig City under the Pasig Pass Ordinance.

Aside from Pasig City, the QR Code generated by the Pasig Pass can be utilized in Mandaluyong, Valenzuela, Antipolo, and Taytay.  These local governments have banded together to form a unified contact tracing network to aid in the fight against the COVID-19 disease.

What is the purpose of the Pasig Pass?

Previously, individuals had to fill out logbooks, contact tracing forms, or health declaration forms every time they entered an establishment. Individuals using the Pasig Pass QR Code/ID will only need to present it and have it scanned by authorized personnel when entering and exiting an establishment. 

Pasig Pass is part of the contact tracing solution of Pasig City to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 disease.

How can the Pasig Pass QR code be used for contact tracing?

After scanning the OR code, the data on where people went is sent directly to the Pasig Pass dashboard, which is linked to the Pasig Health Monitor.

If someone tests positive for COVID-19, it will be easier to determine who they may have come into contact with the places they have visited. When close contacts are identified, they will be tested immediately and, if necessary, isolated to prevent the virus from spreading further.

This data is only accessible to contact tracers working for CESU or the City Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit of the City Health Department.

Only random numbers appeared when I tried to scan my PasigPass QR code with my phone's scanner. Is this the way it should be?

Ordinary QR code scanners will not be able to read the QR code generated by Pasig Pass. This is part of the safeguarding of Pasig Pass account holders' personal information. Only businesses and government offices that have signed up will have access to the designated PasigPass QR scanner. They can only scan it, but the data is sent directly to Pasig Health Monitor, so you can rest assured that your personal information is secure.

What if I don't have a smartphone? How can I register for Pasig Pass and obtain a QR code?

In each barangay, the City Government has set up a registration booth/desk with a printer. This is to assist those who do not have a smartphone in registering and having a printed copy of their QR code which will be presented when they enter establishments in Pasig City.

Is there an expiration date on the Pasig Pass QR code?

There is no expiration date, so you do not need to change or register for a new QR Code. However, if you believe your QR code has been compromised or that someone else is using it, you can renew the OR code. Simply sign in to your PasigPass account again and click "Renew QR code." When you renew it, the previous QR Code will be invalid.

Conclusion

The Pasig Pass website makes it simple to obtain a Pasig QR Code. Individuals or businesses only need to provide correct information. Unlike other contact tracing systems, the Pasig Pass registration portal does not require you to upload a valid ID. You only need to complete the registration form to generate your QR Code.
