The Philippine government has created a new online system for tourists who wish to extend their stay beyond the initial period granted on their tourist visa.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The online extension for the temporary visitor visa is available to foreign nationals admitted under section 9(a) of the Philippine Immigration Act. There are certain groups that are ineligible. These individuals must still apply for extensions at a Bureau of Immigration office.
BAL Analysis: The new process should create a faster application process for eligible foreign nationals and save time and costs by offering an alternative to visiting a Bureau of Immigration office in person.
