A bit Worried
I feel so bad after reading those comments against the Immigration Officer at Clark Airport. I have a scheduled flight this 18th of August to meet my fiance in Bkk. This is my first time to use the Clark Airport since Tiger Airways offered a real affordable airfare. I had no problem in NAIA before even if it's my first time to travel outside the country last year. I been in Malaysia twice last year, so far everything was going well. I'm a bit worried using the Clark Airport now because of those negative comments I heard and read here. Can you please give me more advise to avoid problems with the Immigration Officers?
Corruption
IF your in the departure hall at Clark, watch the immigration officier who is walking around near the toilets.. They wont accept money at the immigration counter as a bribe, as its under two camera's in the roof, however they will tell you to go meet in the toilet if they stamp your clearance.
Word of advise, try to get the video camera on your cell phone running when you approach the counter, but be discrete. even you dont capture the picture, the sound will capture there voice, you will also notice they have new glass screens in place at the immigration counters on departures only.
re: They don't have heart, They're just corrupt!
Christopher of DMIA Immigration Officer. Ganyan din ginawa sa 2 guest ko. Hinahanapan ng OR, proof of income ang 2 guest ehh kumpleto naman yung Travel requirements nila. Passport, Hotel Accommodation, Roundtrip Airline Ticket (Air Asia). Nakapromo lahat. Paano na yung mga nagastos doon? Non Refundable and non rebookable pa naman, so forfeited lang. Hindi ganun kadali magwaldas ng pera.
They don't have heart, They're just corrupt!
They didn't let me in to HK, i was with my boyfriend. i showed them my ticket , hotel booking , and i filled out the form for them. but their still holding me and they asked my boyfriend to checked in while their talking to me. keep asking me for pocket money! One girl said, if you have money then you can be a tourist, but if you dont have then your not allowed to be on the plane! All B.I is just grumpy old human. I feel sad for those people who is just corrupt, even in the airport their doing the same things. They look professional but sorry to say they just want money. try to hand them some money and their not going to ask you more and just let you in without any questions. Manila airport is the best! I am loving it there, and for sure everybody does. Terminal one , and Terminal two is amazing airport for those who wants to travel abroad. Unlike Clark shit airport and shit stuffs working there! i feel sorry for you guys.
worried!!

re: ;(
sa NAIA ka na lang..kailangan mo ng Booking ng hotel,credit card at pocket money na enough sa vacation mo if ilang days ka dun,kailangan marami ka talaga pera maniwala sila na you can handle yourself to go on for a tour abroad especially when you are alone..mag inquire ka na lang sa travel agency,makakatulong din yun.

re: Worst and most corrupt airport ever!!!
I experienced the same just this morning. I felt like they delayed us intentionally because they even lost my boarding pass while waiting to be interviewed for which we do not know why, hence, the delay. Finally he came back to give me the form to be filled up and he said he got a new boarding pass for me ( like I have to thank him for that, duh..! ) . I told that same officer twice that we are going to be late on our flight but he just said wait for your turn " pakihintay lang po,kayo na ang susunod ". They didn't care at all. We patiently waited for our turn. E nauna pa kame s ibang na-intrvw na. They don't have a system. They only have one interviewer, who asks the same question over and over. And nung malaman nila na naiwan kame, wala silang pakialam.
And also be careful when paying Travel Tax, there was one personnel who came up to us and assisted us in paying our travel tax. He asked us to pay exact amount. I did not suspect anything, even if he told me that while waiting, one of us can go and pay the terminal fee already, and so I went and left my sis and my friend. After which, I asked my sis and my friend for the receipt, but they said he didn't issue a receipt. I got suspicious when they asked us to refund the fees as a result of not boarding the plane. The man who took our travel tax fee gave us the refund without going back to the queu or filling up a form. He just handed over the money and said " oh eto na ung pera , para di na kyo pumila ". That is why he didn't issue a receipt coz he planned on keeping the money to himself. Obviously, a corrupt employee.. tsk.tsk.tsk.

re: Useless old people

re: Worried.
Reply to @guess87: Better taje flights coming from NAIA 1,2 or 3 if that is the case. Looks like maraming mistery dito sa DMIA.
re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon
Just wondering what happened to this case. Please make an update so we, frequent travelers will be wary of what to expect and what to do when we encounter things like this. The BI's are not the DFA's and I suppose they do not have the authority to confiscate the passport, more so to tear the passport.
re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon
Good to find this kind of blog here.. Anyway, is this really how our BI officers act??I've been also humiliated in front of many people at the airport. Can somebody tell me how to get a passport confiscated by BI?? And is it really normal that they give temporary receipt without the passenger's name and his passport number at least??..parang hukos pukos kasi...padulas ba hinihingi nila??...
re: Useless old people
Hey, try this webpage and send them email if they know how to read and understand maybe you get lucky that my asshole countryman may response on your comments, cause I myself is sick of our government.
Useless old people
Immigration Clark airport,
You guys are should be licking each others ass there, as you just care about money and not for some people who wants to get some vacations. All the members working there are just ugly old with an attittude .. I was just going to tell them earlier to lick your co-workers ass and fuck that shit! Those guys are not even thinking and they're proud reading this comment now .. Your ratings are must be worse than ever and the reviews are also bad! So condolence to all BI's.. RIP .. All they care is just the money but they cant tell it to you directly! You guys are just sick of money. I feel bad to those persons who works there, even some ladys working there but they cant even help you, As their just all the same smelly shit! So Fuck off guys and keep licking each others ass. hahahaha :) good luck for the next step!

re: Notorious BI Clark Officers
This is still happening. 01 May my girl friend of 2 years was not allowed to leave the country when we attempted to go on Holiday to Hong Kong for 3 days. The decision by the immirgration officer wasn't given until 5 mins before the plane was scheduled to take off. When she told the officer that here job was as a Waitress, the officer accused her of being a prositute. Hmmm....I wonder if I would have offered a VIP fee, would she have been allow to go. Something is Rotten at DMIA.
Worried.
I am planning to travel at the end of this month. I'll be attending my cousin's important event in her life. But I'm so worried about everything I've read here. I have the important documents from my cousin but still, I'm very much worried. :(
DMIA
Wala po mangyayari sa mga complains natin kung walang magpiprint at magsesend ng mga ito sa kaukulang tao sa clark. Marami po masisearch online puwede masulatan na tao sa airport sa clark at kailangan niyo isulat complains niyo at iypost sa kanila. Marami napo silang complains at kung isama niyo sa inyo in proper letters makakatulong masugpo sila.
Frequent flyer po ako sa maraming bansa, UK, Europe, USA, Asia and Middle East. Sa Clark lang po ako nakatagpo ng bastos na Immigration officer. Small time small mind po kasi airport. Papunta ako Bangkok, unang 3 seconds pa lang pagharap ko sa Immigration officer, di pa niya ako tinitingnan, ang tanong niya "saan ka pupunta? Pupuntahan mo kabit mo?'. I looked straight back at him maybe quite challenging because of my shock and disbelief. I think he expected me to joke and just take it. Hindi naman po ako bastos magdamit. Di naman makapal magmake-up. Even if I was, no Immigration officer is allowed to be rude and unprofessional sa remark na ganoon. Hindi ko naman masisi sarili ko, this is how this person was brought up, lacking of decorum and respect sa kapwa tao. I can't even begin to think how he landed his job. I'm sure kumpa-kumpare. He was maybe 50ish. Very arrogant. Dahil Hindi ako natuwa sa very inappropriate unprofessional remark niya, he sent me back to get my return ticket printed. I was showing him my return ticket on my blackberry. Kapag nakakaintindi po Immigration Officer, they know how to look at a real eticket kahit nasa email. It has reference numbers and confirmation. Sa Manila airport, at overseas po in our modern times, madalas po dinidiscourage na pagpiprint ng eticket to be earth friendly. Avoid unnecessary printing--pero Sizemore I don't expect naman this modern thinking na gumagana na sa airport so anyway, I went back out sa airport. Some one hour looking for a printer siguro while im trying to control my anger sa remark ng BI na ito. Wala namang shops doon. Finally I found a friend who happens to work as a Security Guard with Cebu Pacific. Pinagprint niya ako sa office. I printed it, pagbalik ko, wala na ang arroganteng lalaking immigration, tapos di na ako tinanong ng return ticket nitong bagong naka duty. So I managed to fly out. Di na ako sumakay sa Clark from there on.
Touris visa po, sa Manila airport in my 10 years of flying as tourist to so many places, di kailangan at di hinihingi ang Invitation letter from whoever your visiting dahil Tourist po kayo--lalo kung pupunta lamang ng 3 to 7 days or similar sa Hongkong, Thailand, or similar Asian countries. Kailangan lamang po, return ticket, tax paid, passport valid 6 months at ang return ticket. Ako po, kahit ang hotel where I stay in hindi na tinatanong o hinihingan ng print. Pero iyready niyo po. Whether OFW kayo o hindi, kapag Tourist lamang sa Bangkok halimbawa, wala po ito relasyon sa sa mga OFW documents niyo. If you don't need to mention that, Kung kayo ay papasyal lamang, then no need to mention or show any of those OFW related documents dahil lalo lamang nakakalito. Hindi po ito pagtatago danil your going out as a tourist.
Sa mga talagang tourist lamang po, mga girlfriend po ng Foreign Nationals, yun lamang din po kailangan niyo. Return ticket, hotel booking, passport, wala po visa kung Asian countries lamang. Ni hindi naman po dapat kayo hingan o kailangan magpakita ng pera. Wala naman po kinaiba sa turistang pinoy na walang bf o asawang puti, pag tourist po, tourist pare-pareho at iisa requirements.
Problema lamang po, ang kamangmangan at pagkatakaw sa power ng mga BI sa Clark. Sa NAIA na lamang po kayo, kanit na marami ding anomalies, mas monitored naman kaysa sa Clark.
Isulat po niyo mga Complains niyo, Tagalog mas mainam. Siguraduhing ilagay petsa noong nangyari, ilista mga dokumentus na inilabas, at pangyayari at pangalan ng BI. Iwasan po magsulat ng emotional para iyaccept as objective ang complain ninyo kung kayo ay susulat ng proper complain. Punuin lamang po ng facts (petsa, pangalan ng tao, saan papunta, ano ang nangyari at ano ang nasabi, magkano ang nagastos).

Worst airport in the world

Wala nmn problema sa facilities eh. Ung problema is ung service nila. Dun na kikilala airport natin na. Kaya worst airport in the world ang naia tapus tong sa clark parang nagiging ganun narin. Its more fun in the philippines nga ba?ehehe

What if we don't have an invitation letter/affidavit of support from a sponsor that is dry sealed and duly authenticated by the Philippine Consulate office in a foreign country (original copy). Since we are going to be back packers?.......thats were the problems begins with Philippine immigration, you then need to hope the immigration officier on the day does not give you a hard time and stop you leaving the PI.

Hope this can help, All Philippine Consulates in Asia offer a service to provide...Duly Notarized Letter of Invitation (Affidavit of Invitation) from a Sponsor Abroad..
Even with all the documents that you supplied, the person leaving PI may or may not get stopped by immigration.
Take a look at the Philippine Consulate for Malaysia - look under consulate services - h---://---.philembassykl.org.my/

re: Immigration Officers
I am also facing the same issue with my wife. They are asking for a Filipino who is a resident of Malaysia to raise a invitation letter. Frankly, i do not know anyone in such capacity moreover no strange would stick their head to guarantee another stranger. This procedure is so full of shit! The Phil embassy in malaysia have no right to stop a Malaysian in his own country to invite his wife to his homeland. For GOD sake, this is my dam country!!!!

To Hon. Loretta Rosales,
I wrote to you dear Hon. Loretta, Just this morning my Cousin in-law had been refused to pass exit to immigration may mga document invitation letter na hawak..dahil sa misis ko na may sakit dito sa Singapore at hindi maalagaan ang aming anak kaya nais namin na papuntahin sya upang kahit 2-linggo ay makatulong. pero ito ay nangyari na nman na ayaw sya palabasin dyan sa immigration pangalang beses na nangyari sa kanya. marami sa ating mga kababayan ang nagrereklamo sa maling patakaran ng immigration. masama ang loob ko dahil sa gumastos kmi ng pamasahe nya at ito ay nabalewa lang..hindi ganun kadali kumita ng pera dito sa ibang bansa..sana ay makatulong itong sulat ko at mapaabot sa inyo upang aksunan ang ginagawa ng mga tauhan nyo dyan.
