re: Travelling Abroad Alone For the First Time
I think you need invitation letter po kasi hahanapan ka nila ng hotel booking sonif you will tell them na dun ka mag sstay sa kakilala ng dad mo hahanapan ka po ng invitation letter.
:)
Advantage po talaga ang family kasama with father sister or pamangkin dahil yon isipin nila na mag tour lang talaga kayo. Pero kapag mag isa ka or kahit dalawa kayong babae single mahihirapan kayo. My nstances kasi na kahit complete docs ka hahahanapan ka pa rin ng butas. Lalo na kapag mataon ka sa IO mapagmata. Kaya swerte yong mga taong laking gluta hihihi at IO na mabait. Mamili kayo ng io lalaki medyo okay sila kumpara sa mga babae
re: Going to HK
Okay lang po yun, just tell the IO na nung 17 kasama mo is waitress but the IO didn't allow you kasi sabi mas mainam na family kasama mo. Dala ka na lang ng mga proof docs pasiguro lang po. First time mo lalabas ng bansa?
Re: Sponsor
Mahigpit po tlga ang Immigration sa mga papuntang Singapore. Kung may work, try mo mag dala ng CEO and company ID to prove na may babalikan ka. Tas return ticket and accommodation. And they sometimes ask for bank statement
Success!
I just passed the Immigration just NOW I'm going to Phuket, Thailand. It's my first time traveling abroad alone. Female. 22yrs old. Unemployed. Punta ako dun for vacation with my boyfriend na manggagaling Australia. We already met. Sagot ko ticket ko round trip sa accommodation siya sumagot. Anyway, about sa Immigration I'm really shaking! Specially my voice hahaha Pero Ayun, pinakita ko lang tix ko and accommodation. And pictures ng bf ko and all his information (copy ng passport ni bf, ticket info nya Tska birthday!! ) . Tapos since 22 lang ako tinanong kung student ako sabi ko Undergrad Tas tinanong kung saang school What course. Hinahanap kasi yung student ID ko which is hindi ko dala Tas chineck nlng yung old ID ko sa prv Work ko. Tas ayun tinatakan na. Nag advice lang na Next time dalhin ko pa rin daw yung student ID ko kahit undergrad as reference. Actually wala pang 5mins yung interview and babaeng officer pa yun. Just be positive lang guys. And pray!!! It really works.

Drinking fountain
I hope the iloilo airport provides DRINKING FOUNTAIN both on international and domestic terminals... ang mahal ng tubig sa loob ng airport. Davao, cebu, and naia have drinking fountains.... ang mahal ng terminal fee but the services suck esp sa international terminal

Hey everyone! Gusto ko lang ishare, nandito na ako sa NAIA 3 waiting for my flight bound to Japan. First time ko lalabas ng bansa at mag isa lang ako. Medyo madami yung tao. Girl ako kaya as usual, as per advice ng marami, sa guy ka na IO pumila. So una kong ginawa nag fill out muna ako na Departure Card before pumila. Then nung turn ko na kay kuyang immigration, Cuerdo yung surname nya, inabot ko yung passport ko and ticket to Japan.
IO: san ka pupunta?
Ako: sa Japan
IO: first time mo abroad?
Ako: oo
IO: licensed accountant ka?
Ako: hindi
IO: san ka accountant?
Ako: (stated the name of company)
IO: pahiram ng company ID
Ako:(inabot ko yung company ID ko then binalik nya ulit)
IO: sino kasama mo?
Ako: wala
IO: sino pupuntahan mo dun?
Ako: wala
IO: okay patingin ng return ticket.
Ako: (handed him yung boarding pass ko na printed nung nag web check in ako)
IO: kailan ka babalik? (While scanning my return trip boarding pass)
Ako: May 18
Ayun stamp na. Tapos inabot na nya passport ko and yung ticket and boarding pass ko.
Napansin ko lang, dapat talaga di ka magkamali sa pagsagot at dire diretso ang pagsagot.Wag mo din tatantanan ng eye contact. And then less talk less mistake nga.
Yung nasa unahan ko na maglola, hindi nakago agad kasi may hiningi si IO na hindi naibigay kesyo nasa luggage daw nila na nakacheck in na. Ayun pinakuha ni IO at sinabihan na bumalik sa kanya. Nga pala, I am only wearing pants, polo shirt at rubber shoes. Nakamake up din ako ng konti, binonggahan ko lang ang lipstick ko para di halata just in case mamutla ako. Nakaback pack lang din ako. Ayun, presence of mind lang talaga ang kailangan and be prepared. Wag papangunahan ng kaba and of course pray hard!
Good luck everyone!
Hongkong
I went to hongkong just this may 1, it is my second travel outside the country. The immigration officer, didn't even ask any question or ask any documents. He just stamped it. But I already have complete documents in me just in case they'll ask for it. This also happened when I first travelled to thailand, no questions asked. To all travelers, prepare all pertinent documents, kelangan man or Hindi. Do research what you need. Do no rely on someone else to do it for you. Confidence too, and eye contact is very important.
BAGO NA LAHAT NG IMMIG OFFICERS
Lahat ng immig officers pinalitan na lahat. Bago na dahil marami naglayasan na mga datihang immig officers. Sana pati systema nila magbago na din.
Dapat talaga may work or business?
Pansin ko lahat ng nakakaalis or pinapaalis ng mga immigration ay puro may kaya or may business or stable na work dito sa pinas...so ung mga walang trabaho or business pano na? Wala na karapatan mag travel?
re: @Going to Malaysia
Mag isa ka lang po?
@Going to Malaysia
Yes that was my first time traveling outside the country po
re: @Going to Malaysia
Are u a solo and first time traveler?
re: @ going to Malaysia
Yes po may return ticket naman po kasi 2 days lang naman po sa malaysia.
@ going to Malaysia
Yes Coe will do. May return ticket naman dba?
re: Bound to Dubai
Hi. How's the immigration in Philippines po? Sino po kasama niyo nag travel?
re: @ going to Malaysia
Yung COE okay na po yun? Wala din po kasi siya company ID e. And 15K Php okay na po ba yun show money for 2 days niya sa Malaysia?
re: Re: Immigration
Ganun po ba? When ka po nag travel and saang bansa po?
Going to Malaysia
I need an advice please.
My boyfriend is travelling "first time traveler" with my brother and his girlfriend to malaysia this coming june. My boyfriend is not a regular employee he's on call waiter and the company can't provide him a leave certificate cuz he's not regular employee. He can only have COE. & my brother is an ex ofw of Dubai for 2 years, he went back to PH last October 2016 until now 'cause he has business a vape shop. & his gf just resigned 3 months ago she's a nurse, she also went to SG for a family tour 4 years ago. Mahihirapan pa rin po ba sila sa immigration? And what are the documents needed pa po kaya?
Re: Immigration
Yes po. Sa case ko tinawagan nila company ko at nag verify sila if im still connected. Kaya risky talaga. Make sure totoong nagwowork ka sa company otherwise mapapahiya ka lang...
Immigration
Tinatawagan po ba ng immigration yung company kung san ka nag wwork?
re: Palaging may pag asa
ano po ung travel agency un? pwede ba malaman? going to dubai?
Wala ng pagbabago
Wala na talaga pag asa mabago sistema dito sa pinas. Bulok na talaga. Forever ng bulok!!! Mga turistang gusto lang magbakasyon haharangin nila. Mga hayup sila!!! Only in the philippines lang naman
EX-OFW
Baka kasi mahirapan na ko makaalis ulit kahit tourist lang. Nung umuwi ako last year pinapunta ako sa supervisor ng mga IO para daw photocopy nila hawak kong travel document. Ang gusto ko sana malaman kung pwede sabihin na 1st time ko mag travel. May record kaya sila sa 1st interview?
@ ex ofw
Kung for tourist naman siguro hindi nmn ata as long as kapag may document ka to support your trip like Certificate of employment, hotel booking.. Return ticket.
EX-OFW
*ex ofw.
Last year lang ako na-deport pero may work naman ako ngayon. Naka book na ko sa July at ako lang mag isa.
EX-OFW
Hi! Pwede ko po ba sabihin sa IO na first time ko mag travel? Malalaman kaya nila na ex ofs ako? Na-deport po kasi ako at umuwi na travel document ang dala. Try ko sana umalis ulit kaya lang natatakot ako ma-offlod dahil sa record ko.
1stTIME

Australia @cherryberry
Nice, next week Australia din ako, first time ako mag tatravel sponsor ko friend ko though lalake ako sana maging smooth din encounter ko sa IO
T3 immi experience
Dito na po ako Aus. Sa NAIA t3, pagkaabot ko ng passport at departure card, tanong ng lalaking IO siguro nasa mid to late 40s, kung magtutour ako, sabi ko, hmmm sort of kasi po for orientation at familiarisation ako. Then ask, para san, sinabi ko para sa short course ko sa June. Hiningi ang visa ko, although visitor visa (business stream, multiple entry) yon, sabi nya, e di tour pa rin. Then tinatakan nya na.
3rd time ko po to travel overseas. Sa last two na exp ko with the IOs, masasabi ko mas ok ang lalaking IO
re: @ Going to BKK
Btw po, mga how much po yung pwedeng i pocket money if staying in bangkok for 5days?
re: @ Going to BKK
Pwede po pala na magkasama kaming haharap sa IO? I guess mas safe po na dedeclare ko nlg na unemployed ako? Tsaka po 3 po yung kasama ko papuntang bangkok kaso yung 2 is aalis the day b4. Yung isa dun is employed tsaka yung isa is 2nd time nyang tatravel abroad.
Bound to Dubai
After spending 4 days in Bangkok, we're now going to Dubai.
re: @Going to Bangkok
Both female po kami. May case po ba na tinatawagan ng IO yung company if dineclare sa kanya na may work? Thanks po!
**Visiting foreign bf
Well, before i previously worked sa SGV. But now I am working for multinational private company.
Visiting foreign bf
Well known company as accountant? SGV and Ernest &Young?
Hello
Any questions po feel free to ask
@Going to Bangkok
If may company ID kapa keep it, in case the IO will ask you may mapapakita ka.
Mag ready ka ng COE or Approved VL or Leave of Absence. I just made mine pero if you know your previous work well, wala nmn idea si IO na unemployed ka, in case magtanong si IO about your work.
Save all the receipts sa Airline and sa hotel. Gawa ka din ng itinerary para mag mukhang legit ang tour nyo. It's better na maging over prepare than kulang kapag humarap kana kay IO and keep it in mind be confident and don't overthink things. Ask ko lang ano pala gender mo and ng friend mo?
re: for those who want visit to Dubai
Reply to @jennessenagpiing: hi! Magkano po yung payment para sa 90days visit visa? Tsaka dpat po ba merong required pocket money/ show money? Thanks!

Thanks sa pagshare
Traveling with group is not guaranteed
🔗 Fri, 19 May 2017
— Anonymous Flyer at Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Philippines
Hindi po guaranteed mag travel with a group.. pagdating sa immigration isa isa ang interview at hindi by group.. at kapag minalas ka pa matanong ni immigration bakit ka sumasabay sa hindi mo kakilala.. yari ka na
