How should Philippine 9A Travel Visa/9A Business Visa be renewed and overdue?

At the beginning of the epidemic, the Philippine Immigration Bureau had relatively few employees, and some Philippine visa services were suspended for a period of time. Therefore, we generally need to ensure that the passport is valid for more than 6 months to facilitate our visa or renewal procedures. Let's talk about the renewal and overdue of the Philippine 9A travel visa/9A business visa. What should we do?

There are several situations about the renewal of 9A travel/business visa:

1. The tourist visa is not overdue. Then according to the regulations of the Immigration Bureau, each renewal can be renewed for 1 month, 2 months or 6 months.

2. The tourist visa is overdue for less than 6 months. In this case, the first renewal can only update the current overdue time, plus an additional one month.

3. The tourist visa is overdue for more than 6 months and less than 12 months. Then you need to apply for administrative reconsideration, which is what you call MR. This is a letter to the Immigration Bureau, which requires the approval of a lawyer. There are also applications for MR for the 59-day travel visa expiration or some special circumstances such as landing visa and vdo.

4. If the travel visa is overdue for more than 12 months (including 2 years). At this time, it will be automatically included in the OTL repatriation list. If you renew it normally at this time, the Immigration Bureau will detain your passport and send it to the customs office. You must pay the fee at the Immigration Bureau and at the airport before the plane takes off. If you have already held a tourist visa in the Philippines for 2 years, you can continue it for another 4 months. The latter treatment is similar to the above situation. Everyone's situation is different, so try to find the most suitable way.

If you need to apply for a 9A business visa/travel visa: please prepare the original passport, a copy of your ID card and 2 domestic color photos with a white background of 2*2, then contact our online customer service of Yiyou International, and we will help you with the relevant procedures immediately.

If you want to stay in the Philippines, in addition to submitting MR, you also need to apply for a long-term residence visa similar to 9G visa. Just provide 9G application information so that you can stay in the Philippines legally.
