Register to E-travel: etravel.gov.ph/authentication If you find it too difficult, (Oohh kalma baby kalma 🎶) you can register upon arrival. You should still be abel to board your flight to Ph without an etravel registration. E-service: e-services.immigration.gov.ph/
What about after ng vacay Ms. Teri pabalik na kami ng ibang bansa ulit kelangan paba mag rehistro ulit ng aming etravel? At meron pa rin bang screenshot na ipapakita? Ty. P.s. balikbayan at dual pass po ako. Once lang po ba gagawa ng etravel only by entering Phils.?
Hi Jenni, following your video i have a problem at 02:48 . After putting in my e-mail address i waited for 5 minutes, but didn't receive any OTP. Can't i use my german e-mail address for this? It happened to me with registering for a Saudi visa, that they didn't take my german e-mail addresses from various e-mail providers. Thank you for your answer !
Better to get it done before arriving to the Philippines. I was departing from Poland last summer heading back to Philippines where I am a legal resident and prior to getting a boarding pass I was asked to present the E travel as well as my IR card. Again prior to boarding they checked the E travel for the Philippines even though I was enroute to Dubai for a few hours stopover. This may vary from country to country but since we definitely will need it it's best to do it earliest possible before arrival. Also just an opinion about the new rules, the 5 minutes time to retrieve the code may be not enough for various reasons such as weak signal.
after 5 years of LDR im finally get to pick up my filipina and we will start our lives together!!! Jennifer you were a very important part that gave me the info i needed to get there back in 2022. the philippines is my 2nd home. Salamat!!!!
The Philippines is becoming such a hassle. This website takes a lot of tries to get it right. Try registering for a freaking SIM card. You pretty much have to give the freaking government DNA and your 1st born.
Thanks for the INFO , lucky one of my friend told me to watch your video and now i know 3 days before the flight i need to sign up my E-travel form😊👋God Bless
It is easier and simpler to travel to other country like Thailand. upon arrival scan right hand, scan left hand, scan both thumb, look at the camera .DONE ! WHEN YOU LEAVE, SAME STEPS.
only in the Phil, this is from my perspective, ridiculous and they're wasting our time if you'll ask me, just complete the paper that's it like we used to, I'm almost sure some foreign nationals are not appreciative of this system
Yes please give an answer to this because I wll travel to the philippine direct from a cruise so I dont have time to register before taking the flight to PH
Filipino service it's waste of time at all! And since I have a big experience staying in your country I have idea why: Filipinos are never complain!😅 I stayed in Island Masbate and it was 1 week "no electricity". And you know what? Nobody knows why, nobody tried to figure out why, nobody complained! And I asked them, if 1 year it's no electricity, would you still repeat your favorite "it's ok". They replied: "we don't know"😅. It's very convenient population for the government! 😅 And yes, it's no transportation system schedule, no G-Cash or Smart mobile connection support, once I spent 2,5 days to recover my lost sim card "Smart". In other countries it takes 5 minutes maximum!
Omg, it's very stressful going home with all these requirements. Talo pa ang western countries as if Philippines is a high tech country. Mabagal na nga ang internet kung minsan nawawala pa. Kaya nga I was having a second thought of going home. Like me a senior who is not a comouter literate. Bakit di na lang ibalik yung travel form. Mas madali pang maintindihan. You have enough time in the plane to fill it up. Pabago bago pa from time to time ang kanilang travel policy. Hay only in the Philippines.
I agree with you, maraming ika nga busisi, pwede namang paper na lang ang fill up-an, I don't feel like doing this online may picture pang required tapos ang mga personal info natin hindi safe sa online at maraming hackers these days! It's true kung di lang kelangang umuwi, I don't feel like gg home maraming sobrang pa nga kesa sa ibang bansa ang mga requirements, my gosh!
Thank you Jennifer you are the best. You're always. Are so amazing you keep us informed you do it? Heck of a job. Keep up the good work. I'm American and you are our favorite person. Who always keeps us informed and how to protect ourselves? What to do in order to enter your country with crazy laws But thank you god bless you always
Hi Jen two friends of mine left Australia yesterday and did not have to take a photo for that the travel pass.. they still got their barcode. All went well.
Funny I must say in my five trips to the Philippines, I have not been asked once for the declaration forms that I fill out prior to landing. Thank you for the updates Jennifer, I always look forward to hearing from you.
Just sharing we traveled 2022 we register, then 2023 change of way of registering again, then now need to create an account first before we can register. Every year there is something new or change..wow...
I can tell you now, that the online customs form (although not mandatory) is a waste of time. You will still have to fill a paper copy upon arrival anyway. So do not bother with the online form. Good thing is E-travel now goes straight to the bureau of Immigration electronically therefore, not requiring a print out, a copy on your phone, or a QR code of any kind. When you hand your Passport to immigration, they already see your etravel doc on their system.
Last December, nobody at immigration in NAIA asked me about e-travel or later the customs-form. Only at check-in in Vienna/Austria I was asked for it, and the person then studied it thoroughly. I had the impression that this was the first time he saw it.
Only filipino passport holders need to upload a photograph ,foreign tourists done need to upload a picture. as ive already in registration form before you gave this update,
Thanks Jennifer for all the help with Traveling. I’m going to see my wife and son soon. And we’ll be working on more government things to get them to the US. Pray for us to be successful and finally be together as a complete family in one country. Thanks again Jennifer.
Like your no fluff, clear to the point info style. Also like the sprinkling of Tagalog phrases like char, diba, talaga no, ayan - love the taglish. Step aside Pea. PS never lose the Filipino pronunciation of pichoor it's perfect 😄
I saw a Filipino family denied entry at immigration here in Manila because they didn't have the eTravel completed. The website has problems and if you do it wrong it's confusing to find out why you did it wrong. Still amazes me that I travel Europe & North America with such ease (none of this eTravel BS but yet the Philippines still makes it hard to enter their country. The way Philippines airport immigration treats people at the airport is a disgrace (I have seen this but force to keep my mouth shut because of their power). Go to immigration at the airports in Canada and you will see the exact opposite. Philippines needs a complete transformation on their airport system.
Yan nga e!! Yong tunay na pilipino ay lagi bibigyan ng trouble..samantskang na those have no right to be in the Philipines yon ang ang binibigyan ng karapatan..its right po !
E travel is a waste of time, mostly no one is asking for it, the Philippines is the only country doing this, just like you have to be screened at least 3 to 4 times, please get rid of this
They don't ask because it pops up on the screen when they scan your passport . It is so people can be tracked and found if needed . More countries will end up doing things like this as time goes on.
I understand it was for covid, but it just seems to slow down travelers now. My wife and I were scam 2023 recently, but were able to reverse the charges. Phil E-travel is free through government website we found out afterwards.
I have been home twice every 6 months and no etravel at all !!!! Why people still saying u need etravel. Can I ask you , when was the last time you went to the Philippines. ?
Yang e travel at immigration ng pinas nakakadistruct para sa mga tourista. Wants planning to visit philippines... two weeks ago ng travel ako by plane bound to Paris. Yung handlaguages pina checkin nila tapos walang padlock. Nakarating ako ng paris na walang nawala sa gamit ko at Same parin ang ayos. Kudos kung sa pinas yun tyak nawala na yong laman ng bagahe ko. Lalo na yong mga importante na gamit..😂😂😂
@@victoriaagustin9864 kahit saan my magnanakaw. Pero d tulad sa pinas na talamak sa mgnanakaw. Well dependi... k ung aangaanga ignorante sa daan at halos lahat ng alahas nakapalamuti sa iyong katawan. Tyak mananakawan ka sa daan....pero in my experience Maß safe ang Paris sang sa Manila....
Why Immigration requires to upload your picture when in fact each inbound traveler (foreign or nationals) has already a picture in his/her passport. Philippines is the ONLY country that do this. What a dummy. Are they (immigration officials) thinking how vulnerable and risky for the travelers that can be easily hacked, stolen identity theft or identity fraud? These concerns need to be brought to the Philippines Immigration.
I was thinking same thing, why do we need to upload a pic? technology or any websites are not that safe at all, esp with our personal info e.g. dob, etc
Welcome back Jennifer, we miss you. Question on the registration part. What if you are a dual national? My wife has both US and Philippine Passports, which would she put in to the registration? We carry both her passports and of course our marriage certificate when we visit. Thank You.
Where have you been, we missed you 😃. Looking forward to the immigration video. Hoping to take my girlfriend from Cebu to Singapore next month but panicking a bit 😢 .... Great video and take care x
The last customs form I got was very confusing. The koisk is confusing I'm old and don't understand all of this and it makes it so I Don't like to travel
Can someone please answer a question? I have a girlfriend in the Philippines we're talking about marriage .I want to send a round-trip tickets to her to com to the USA for a short vacation and give her the money pay for all the food and lodging as simple as that !! like any other person in any other Nation who have the money to go on a short vacation and take a flight 😮question is ? Is the Filipino government going to stop her from coming over on a vacation to visit me? what does she need doesn't she just need a passport and a visa to come on a vacation? she told me that the government will not let her go unless she is rich!!!😢 please what's going on ? in the Philippines? Why can anybody in almost the whole world travel freely without hindrance but if you're a Filipino 34 years old and you have a round-trip tickets food and lodging in a destination ,me😊 why will they stop her from coming to visit and return to the Philippines please answer because this is what we dealt with just a few days ago! it's very alarming and frustrating to say the least to have to let our love go to throw our future plans of marriage in the garbage becauseof what seems to be a Dictatorship ? Wer not Rich
First of all you have to apply for a Visa ( fiancee Visa ) for her. I dont know If Theres such "commitment declaration" in USA All cost and health insurance should be shouldered by you. If your GF can provide a Statement that she has sufficient income in the Philippines, that is more important( IT could be thru Business, Job) then she can travel without any Help from an inviting person. If she could Not Provide any of These, you have to get a declaration that you are inviting her either visitor Visa or fiancee Visa. You could get more Info from your municipal hall or service Offices in your City. You dont have to be RICH to be able to invite someone.
If you have become a resident permanently like SRRV, your PRA card replaces your ACRI tourist card. And your SRRVVisa is super imposed inside your passport for USA anyways.
Hi Jennifer I came from the US and that’s for 4 weeks. Then went to London for 10 days to visit family. When registering for etravel back to the Philippines, what would be the country of origin that I’d declare, is it London or US? I’m a dual citizen by the way, thank you so much
I do remember & it was more easier, faster & no hassle! This etravel whatever is ridiculous & to me inefficient! This is far too much & should be stopped, the paper ones we used to complete was more than enough!
Akala ko ang changes, ibabalik na rin nila yung traditional paper base. Mga Seniors wala namang email address. Ang haba haba parin ng pila sa Arrival area.
Hi Jennifer, Do you still register with E Travel 3 or 4 days before your flight ? Or can you just register anytime and then just put in your flight info later or 3 or 4 days before your flight ?
Jennifer, i just acquired my SRRV permanent residence, and went to Intramuros to validate rather or not i had to do an ECC exit clearance or have a letter of right to return before i set up a departure and i was turned away saying because of my residency through PRA that neither was required😊❤
Hey Jennifer! I just got back from my trip to Angeles City! When I was arriving in Clark, I went right through immigration with out issue but the last stop before leaving the airport I believe was customs. There was a crowd around the counter and when I approached the guy at the counter he pointed to a bar code and said I had to complete a form. I must have looked annoyed so he told me to just go but todo it next time. Can yup tell me what that was about? I had a completed paper form but they appeared to have no interest in that. What was that for? Is it something you can complete ahead of time?
Hi Jen, Thanks for all your updates that have helped me in the past. I'm Australian and have Created an Account & added my Hubby. Travelling from Australia to Thailand & staying for a few days, so I can't submit the etravel info until I get to Thailand. When I fill up etravel in Thailand, I assume My Country of Origin will be Thailand?
Thanks for your informative video. I didn't know this. The good thing is you said in the comments you should still be able to board your flight if you didn't do this or know about it. I will go ahead and register. Just one question. After registering it generates a QR code which you show to the immigration officer for scanning. So will a screen shot on my I-phone or laptop or a print out of the QR code be ok? When I arrive my I-phone will be offline. If I just show a photo of the QR code from my I-phone to the immigration officer will it still work offline?
Jennifer, when I was creating my etravel registration, it asked for the arrival date. Our ticket has an arrival date of 9-12, but on the form it is only letting you enter 9-11. Is that correct?
mind boggling double data registration which your passport is scanned and holds .......maybe it is to deter rather than encourage visitors .certainly offers no added protection or help to any authority in the Philippines and now you need customs clearance for prescribed medication for which you need to register...... is there no end to this data harvesting system .........if they don`t want visitors just close down the tourist economy and everyone will go elsewhere.....I`m sure the other countries will welcome the additional income the visitors bring and they don`t apply all the extra hoops which now need to be jumped through just to have a holiday ............
Hallo Jen. Tanong lng po sana I'm Philippine passport holder pwedi lng ba yon na gagawa ako ng Etravel isama ko yung Husband ko? Or gagawa nlng ako ng Etravel para sa husband ko ksi kapag bumalik kmi sa Abroad hindi na niya kailangan yung ko Etravel.... at isa pa babalik din ako after 1month at yung husband ko ma stay sya 4mths eh... More Power to you, thanks😊
I am foreigner, and I'm planning to vacation out of Philippines with my son, He is minor and his father will not join us due to his work Any recommendations?
Hello po, may tanong ako. I recently got married but did not have time to change my name on my passport, however when I bought my ticket I placed it under my old name which is on my passport. Is that ok? Would I get in trouble bc my new last name is different legally than my maiden name on my passport?
Jennifer, i already create an accout 1 weak ago and now i dont know how to recover the informations i already enter. it was easier with the old system to fill the etravel but now im lost
I'm having trouble doing the free etravel for the Philippines I get to the question date of arrival and I am unable to put the date in? What do I do? They don't allow you to do this form before 72 hours of arrival and I can't get it completed
I'm hoping to fly back to the states with my fiance soon , but have a question. I know that I must have a ruturn ticket upon arrival in the Philippines, but is it ok to have a one-way ticket there and a one-way ticket back? The reason I ask is because I want my fiance and I to have the same itererary on the return trip, so want to purchase the return tickets together.
