When can I apply for a Philippine visa?

When to apply for a visa is the decision of the embassy, and the application time stipulated by each embassy is different. Applicants must submit their applications in accordance with the regulations of the embassy. Can they apply for a Philippine visa at any time?

The office hours stipulated by the Philippine embassy are from 8: 30 to 17: 30 from Monday to Friday, while the embassy stipulates that the time for applicants to submit their applications is from 8: 30 to 11: 00 in the morning, so applicants can only submit their applications in the morning, and the afternoon is the time for applicants to pick up their signatures and review by the embassy.

Since the application time set aside by the embassy for applicants is relatively short, and the application day is only 3 hours, applicants should hurry up. It is best to wait for the application at the embassy half an hour to an hour in advance to avoid queuing for applications, because the application time is relatively short. Therefore, there will be more applicants.

Note: The office hours of the Embassy do not include holidays and weekends.

If the applicant does not have time to submit the application at the embassy, he can also choose to apply for landing visa. Philippine landing visa does not require the application time, as long as the applicant goes to the destination airport.

Note: Only those who meet the requirements of landing visa can handle it.

After applying for a visa at the embassy, the embassy will accept it. If the visa is successfully obtained, the applicant can only get the visa at the embassy in the afternoon. If the applicant finds an agent to handle it, not only does it not need to submit the application at the embassy, but the agent will also hand over the visa to the applicant, which is more convenient.

If the applicant meets the visa-free conditions, there is no need to be familiar with the office hours of the embassy, because you can enter the Philippines without a visa, and you only need to bring your passport.

To sum up, applications can only be submitted in the morning of the first five days of each week, because they can only be signed in the afternoon and cannot apply for a visa. If the applicant applies for a visa at the embassy in the afternoon, the embassy will not accept it.
