  2. Visa policy of the Philippines • The visa policy of the Philippines is governed by Commonwealth Act No. 613, also known as the Philippine Immigration Act, and by subsequent legislation amending it. The Act is jointly enforced by the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) and the Bureau of Immigration (BI), although visas are issued under the sole prerogative of the BI. • Generally, foreign nationals who wish to enter the Philippines require a visa unless: • He/she is a citizen of a member state of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) • He/she is a citizen of a non-ASEAN member state whose nationals are allowed to enter the Philippines • He/she is a balikbayan and is only returning to the Philippines temporarily

  3. Visa waiver program • The Philippine visa waiver program is governed by Executive Order No. 408, signed on November 9, 1960 by President Carlos P. Garcia, and by subsequent executive issuances amending it. While visas are issued by the BI, the program itself is administered by the Department of Foreign Affairs, which maintains a list of countries eligible to participate in the program. In principle, nationals of countries which maintain diplomatic relations with the Philippines and whose nationals are not classified as restricted nationals by the DFA are allowed to enter the Philippines without a visa. Eligible nationals availing of visa-free entry must possess passports valid for at least six months beyond their contemplated period of stay. • On July 1, 2013, the BI began implementing an extended visa waiver for covered nationals from 21 to 30 days, which the Philippine government hopes will boost tourism. The program will be fully implemented in August. • Visa exempt foreign nationals may extend their stay two months per extension but not exceeding the maximum period of two years.[4] Foreign nationals who require a visa may extend their stay one month per extension but not exceeding the maximum period of six months and must have a ticket valid for onward travel. • In March 2015 it was proposed to extend the visa exemption to citizens of China and India.

  4. Replacement visas • Nationals of China traveling as tourists and holding a valid visa issued by Australia, Canada, Japan, United States or a Schengen Area state may enter and stay without a visa for up to 7 days. • Nationals of India holding a valid tourist, business or resident visa issued by Australia, Canada, Japan, Singapore, United Kingdom, United States or a Schengen Area state may enter and stay without a visa for up to 14 days. If Indian nationals are utilizing replacement visa scheme, The port of entry needs to be via Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila. Indians with AJACSSUK (Australia, Japan, Canada, Singapore, the US and UK visa) visa travelling to Philippines can now enter from any entry port including major international airport and secondary international hubs as well as in sea ports by passengers on board cruise ships / vessels. Indian nationals with valid AJACSSUK visa can enter Philippines without a visa for 14 days. Earlier this policy was only applicable to Indian Nationals arriving at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport or Clark International Airport.
