Question? I’m only have expired Philippine passport but I’m already US citizen not dual citizen. If I visit using my US passport including my daughter which is the same situation expired Philippine passport only US passport. We enter the Philippines as foreign Tourist am I right? Under foreign tourist they’ll give us 30 days visa free? From what I understand I am no longer former Filipino even though me and my daughter have expired Filipino passport.
@@analynpenaflor9853 swiss nationals can enter visa free and stay for not more than 30 days po. If the want to stay longer, they can apply for an extension at the immigration office near them
I just came back to USA from Philippines on August 22nd. They didn't ask me anything, like no "onehealth pass" , no antigen test, nothing nothing at all. Everything was easy and this was in Manilla airport. In Butuan airport they asked me about my vaccine card and asked me about my booster results. I have two boosters and all was good. So easy this time. Thanks Philippines.
Hi is anyone can answer my question here! Thank you. I'll be back in US this Thursday so my flight would be PHILIPPINES to Korea to Atlanta to Florida . Do I need to get NEGATIVE TEST for Korea? Am already fully vaccinated. Thank you
@@analizaspeach if it's only a lay over and you're not leaving the airport, you don't need to do anything. As of June 2022, the CDC no longer require fully vaccinated travelers entering the US. You're only required to apply for State Health Declaration IF you're a Korean citizen.
@@leonideshaider4685 As far as Philippines’ departure requirements are concerned, no need for PCR test or OHP. Destination country may have testing requirements, so you need to check on that.
Thank you. Nice to have the meaning of acronyms in each slide. I noticed that there are many acronyms in the Philippines that confuses even balikbayans who are not familiar with those acronyms.
Just confirming if you are foreign tourist and you have one month extension you do not need an exit clearance to leave the country… Secondly if you are foreign tourist and you have two extensions so you got your first one after 30 days and then you got a second one after another 30 days before you leave the country you must have an exit clearance.
Hi Jennifer, thank you for information and for clear instruction. We found your videos prior to our trip to Philippines July-August 2022, very helpful. Our trip going to/from Manila airport was pleasant. We are now back in NY, thank you again. We are Filipino/American with only US passports (planning to file for dual citizenship) soon. Until then, we'll check for updates on your videos when we ureturn to Philippines. Stayed less than 30 days , no travel tax at departure. No one health pass check either upon exit. We followed your instruction on getting One HealthPass registration, took a snapphoto of qr code. No issues upon entry. You made our trip easy. My sister in law on the other, different story. She did not follow your instruction. She had issues related to One Health pass registration upon entry. Thank you!
Jen, i 'm dual citizen . My husband is Pilipino. I stayed in the Phil. for 1 year more now. I travel to California USA last March 10 using my Irish passport. I did not pay travel tax and they did not ask me to pay when i was in Manila airport. Only they asked was my dual citizenship cert. and vaccination card. That time no E- travel yet. Thank you. I follow you always.
Jennifer, it should be emphasized that you DO NEED to bring your VISA EXTENSION paperwork with you when you exit the country as a tourist (less than 60 days in my case) That is a requirement, in addition to your passport, of course. I've done it twice this year. By the way, the Makati Ayala Circuit Mall Bureau of Immigration office is fantastic. Both visits took less than 10 minutes. For those who plan to stay longer than 30 days I suggest they stay a few days in Manila upon arrival and get their extension done in Makati. I recommend the St Giles hotel which is not far away and a good value for money.
Thanks so much Jen i always love your informative videos i am traveling very soon, US Cit here will only stay for 2 wks, fully vaxxed and completed my 2nd booster thank you more power🥰😘🙏🏻
Thank you so much for making everything easy to understand. I have been here on a mission now for 7 months and now I know what I need to do from my departure. I’ll be back in 6 months 🇵🇭❤️🙏🏼👆🏼
Last time i left the Davao February 2020 i was charged an exit fee 750 php for going to Singapore ..Singapore and most other airports around the world don't charge anything to leave the country...
They always charged a airport tax leaving the airport on a plane since 1980s i know. I am a legal resident of philipines 13a visa since 1980s.i am a usa citizen retired on social security usa federal preimum tax paid over 45 years every week .
@@melchorasoy4611 no, it called bribery, as all democrats take, just like biden and china . If caught offering or taking a bribe, it is prison or death penality, if it treason by bribery
That's right! My husband has SRRV & he just accomplished his TRAVEL PASS online at the PHILIPPINE RETIREMENT AUTHORITY/ PRA website. It has 1 month validity from the day it was issued. He's preparing for our California flight this September. Coming back here in the Philippines, he's required to notify PRA of his arrival, as well.
Wow, Jenn, this was awesome! I'm sure many will agree that this is very helpful and useful information. 👍 Thanks again for doing such a great job in keeping us updated!
I am a dual citizen and a senior citizen . my last travel is last 2017 to the US and back. Do i have to pay travel tax since i've been here in pinas 5 years now.
I was there in Philippines July 30 thru August 11 and when I left there were no requirements to leave. My wife only had to pay airport travel tax only. No other requirements.
Hi Jen. I am resident in Uk but I still using Philippines passport. Bkit aq ngbyd ng travel tax which is P1620.00. Umuwi aq nung Juy 10 2022 and umlis aq sa Pinas August 8 2022. Almost 1 month lang aq sa pinas. Pero nung umuwi aq nung 2020 wala nmn aq binyrn
Kahit po before 2020, basta PH citizen pa kayo (PH passport holder), kailangan magbayad ng travel tax. Minsan kasama na sa airfare yung travel tax - you have the option to include it if flying via PAL or Cebu Pacific. Pag OFW, exempt sila sa travel tax pero may ibang papers na hinahanap sa kanila.
So detailed and informative. I'm dual citizen with a valid Philippines Passport and USA passport who have stayed in the Philippines for 18 months and glad to know I don’t need an ECC and only have to pay travel tax. Thank you so much again. Pls advise is I need anything else before departure or exit in the Philippines.
Hi Jennifer! I am a long-time subscriber and I am very thankful for all the information that I was able to gather from your channel. My travel to and from the Philippines last April was a breeze! I even recommended your channel to my sister who travelled also last June. Anyway, my wife will be travelling to the Philippines first week of September transiting in Hongkong. Can you please let me know the documents we need to prepare?
Hi Jennifer, halimbawa bkasyon ko lang ng pinas ay 1 month and a half. At babalik na ulit ako sa lugar ng asawa ko. Pero hindi ako dual cetizen kundi may residence visa lang. Mag babayad pa rin ba ako ng Philippine travel tax?
Hi mam ask ko lng poh nakabalik knba sa lugar ng aswa nio poh. Usto ko lng po malaman kong kumuha kaba ng CFO nung pabalik / paalis ng bansang pinas hope magreply an nio po ako slamat
If you want him to avail of balikbayan privilege (1 year stay), he must travel with you. Bring your marriage certificate. If it's written in Japanese, it must have English translation. During that 1 year stay, he can apply for 13A visa so that he can be a non immigrant resident.
Hi jennifer confused lang ako galing ako sa anak ko sa cnada before pandemic plan ko po bumalik visitors visa lang po ano kakarenew ko lang ng visa ko ano po ang pwede ko dalhin na requirements..65 na po ako kaya gusto ko ma aayos lahat bago mag flight salamat po
Good morning Miss Jennifer. I’m flying again in the Phils. on Oct. 29 and I want to be updated on the policies of the Phils. for international travelers. Your column is very helpful. But do I need to check if there is a new policy again before my flight? Last year, I always check in your column almost twice a month before my departure here in US because the Phils., IATF is always changing its policies. Thank you so much and God bless🙏
Saan po nakakakuha ng PEDO certificate? Noong first time ko umalis sa Pinas as permanent residence less than one year ang stay ang pinapakuha sa akin ay TEC. at ngayong December uuwi na naman po ako mag stay lang ako ng 2 months hnd ko po alam kung ano na naman hihingiin sana wala na,
as I am married and living in the Philippines and its over 7 years since I left to go back to my country to get my pension sorted out what list do I come under as all of this is very confusing to me
Hi, for permanent residents abroad, first time to leave the country. What is the requirement you said towards the end, sounded like PEBO. Yes, it is confusing and could be simplified by a tax for the use of the airport which could be levied on everybody. There are too many categories. Thanks.
Salamat sa video mo malaking tulong ito sa mga travelers na gaya ko. Pero medyo nalilito ako kong kailangan ko nang Exit clearance 17months ang stay ko dito sa Pinas by the time na babalik ako sa US next month. Balikbayan po ako. Kasi yon chart mo sabi if you stay for a year or more you will need an exit clearance and also if you stay for 18 months or more you will also need an exit clearance. Bakit hindi na lang sabihin na 1 year or more? Salamat po
How about a foreign national with permanent resident visa in the Philippines (SRRV or SSRN visa holder) who stayed in the country for more than a year?
Hi Jennifer, I’m going to pinas this September, i have 4 vaccine already, do we need to covid test before before my flight, how abt ECC do we need to file up the form, we gonna stay in pines for 21 days,i hope you read my txt, thanks
Hi miss jennifer itatanong ko lang po kung ang foreign national ay gustong mag stay nang 6 months yung return ticket po ba ay pang isang buwan po ba or hanggang 6 months? naguguluhan po ako kasi dati sabi only for 30 days lang..salamat po
Exit ticket should be for less than 30 days. The visa on arrival (free) will be for 30 days only. If he wants to extend, he must go to an Immigration office to extend his visa (and pay).
@@kitty_s23456 thank you po pero ibig sabihin bibili na naman xa nang panibagong ticket After 6 months?kasi kailangan lang ng less than 30 days ang return ticket
Ako po ay taiwan citizen with valid taiwan passport born in the philippines and never been out of the country. Kumpleto po immigration papers ko. Ano-ano po ba ang kakailanganin kong gawin bago pumunta ng taiwan as tourist?
As far as I know, 1 year if you will use your Foreign passport. But if you enter with Philippine passport, you can stay as long as you want. Make sure bring both your passports.
