DOT X PTOUR Mobile Accreditation in Samal

The Department of Tourism (DOT), in partnership with the Provincial Tourism Office of Bataan and the Municipality of Samal, conducted the DOT x PTOUR Mobile Accreditation on August 26, 2026, at the 3rd Floor Conference Hall, Municipal Hall, Samal, Bataan.

Held under the Provincial Government of Bataan’s Bisita Bayan Program, the activity brought accreditation assistance closer to tourism stakeholders in Samal. Participants were oriented on the DOT accreditation process, documentary requirements, and environmental compliance requirements through the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB).

The program also included onsite assistance for the submission of documents through the DOT Accreditation Portal, followed by the physical inspection of applicants. The activity was supported by the Department of Tourism Region III, the Provincial Tourism Office, and the Samal Tourism Office, with the aim of helping local tourism establishments meet accreditation requirements and further improve the quality of tourism services in Bataan.
