There are several categories of foreign nationals who can enter the Philippines visa-free, but for this video, I would like to focus on those foreign nationals or citizens covered under Executive Order No. 408, as amended.
EO 408 was issued by the late President Carlos P. Garcia way back in 1960 with a purpose of providing a more expeditious system and simpler forms for the encouragement and facilitation of foreign tourist travel to the Philippines.
The authority to prescribe a simple and concise form and an expeditious system of travel documentation of foreign tourists applying for admission to the Philippines is delegated to the Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
As governed by the said Executive Order No. 408 and the subsequent executive issuances amending it, the Department of Foreign Affairs maintains a list of eligible countries whose nationals may avail of visa-free entry to the Philippines on the following conditions:
1. First, that they are holders of passports valid for at least six (6) months beyond the contemplated period of stay. So, if you intend to stay in the Philippines for only 30 days, your passport must have the validity that extends for 6 months beyond the last day of your stay in the Philippines. If you have plan of staying for more than 30 days, you also must make sure that your passport will have the required validity of 6 months beyond your last day of stay in the Philippines. The problem would be if you would extend your stay for a year or 2 or more than that, and by that time, your passport would already have expired. It would be of help if you can renew your passport through your country’s embassy or consulate in the Philippines.
2. Second, that they must also possess return tickets to their country of origin or outward-bound tickets to their next country of destination. This would not be a problem if you are certain of the date of your flight back to your country or onward to your next destination, and you have no plan of extending your stay beyond the 30-day period. But you might want to try the onward ticket which I learned that you can book at a much cheaper price and it provides you the flexibility in your onward flight schedule as it allows you to reschedule your flight. Just make sure that you choose a legitimate provider. Please do your due diligence in that regard.
