Immigration violations are taken very seriously in the Philippines. Every year, dozens of foreigners pay fines and are put in Immigration detention for breaking the law. Visa regulations in the Philippines change often – be sure to check the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) website at www.dfa.gov.ph frequently for updates. Visitors U.S. citizens do not need a visa to enter the Philippines for stays of less than 21 days. Visitors coming to the Philippines on the no-visa policy must enter for tourism purposes, have a passport valid for six-months beyond their estimated stay and present proof of onward travel.ention.ivileges.
Temporary Residents If the intended stay is over 21 days, a visa is required. Currently, 21-day visas can be extended to 59 days for 2,020 pesos. Visa extensions can be made at the Bureau of Immigration in Manila or at a regional office. If avisitor overstays their temporary visa, they may have to pay a fine of 1,000 pesos. Failure to pay the fine may result in detPermanent Residents There are many types of visas for permanent residents.

I have heard visa extension can be made easy so why overstays and pays a fine?
I have never exceed the 21 days stays in Manila and not apply for extension yet for the holidays but I guess overstaying would cost lots of money and trouble on your next visit.

good day!

Answer 2

If you are Filipino or have Filipino parents, you may qualify to apply for Dual Citizenship at your City Hall. This will allow you to keep your US citizenship and enjoy the benefits of also having Filipino citizenship. The fee to apply for Dual Citizenship is $50 unless they have raised it. When you receive your Philippines passport, your overstays in the Philippines should no longer be much of an issue.

Answer 3

It's a very complicated formula with fees increasing for each overstay period. You might have to pay some bribe money too.

I lived there for 6 1/2 years. If you have family there you might be able to get a long term visa. Contact the Philippine embassy....

Answer 4

the really project you'd be required to pay is the fe they could charge for leaving the country. i imagine that's less than one thousand Pesos. some thing like 750 Pesos. better to be able to pay that or be not on time. bypass to the close by Bureau of Immigration too to pay the penalty for overstaying. Don t wait til the perfect minute, you may bypass over your flight.
