More economic activities such as nail and skin care services, except full body massage, are now allowed to operate in areas under the General Community Quarantine (GCQ) as the government further eases restrictions after close to five months of rolling lockdowns, forcing business activities to a halt.

Department of Trade and Industry Memorandum Circular No. 20-44, issued on July 31, 2020, re-categorizing some business activities category 4 to category and the additional services allowed for barbershops and salons starting August 1.

MC 20-44 has also allowed testing, tutorial, and review centers; Internet cafes; pet grooming; drive-in cinemas; dermatological clinics offering aesthetic procedures; other personal care services, except full body massage. MC 20-44 also adjusted the operating hours of all food and retail businesses to maximum of up to 11 p.m. and food delivery services of up to 1 a.m. As such, local government units are enjoined to adjust curfew hours accordingly to enhance income opportunities for workers and business owners.
