Questions on Visas

2 years ago
I try to keep updated on the ever changing rules on entering and leaving the Philippines. I check in with the you tube travel update of Jennifer Terri.

There were a lot of changes for the better today (April 1).

My wife is a native born Filipina with dual citizenship in the USA and the RP. I am planning on retiring in Pototan. My wife will fly on a one way ticket in October. I plan to joining her there in December.

Here's my questions; (1). Do I need a special visa in order to travel alone as a spouse of a Philippine citizen. (2). Do I need to have an onward booking or a return ticket, or can I just buy a one way ticket. (3). What documents do I need to carry to enter alone?

I spent the holidays in the Philippines a few months ago, but I traveled with my wife. I want to make sure Io cover all my bases as I will be travelling alone in this December.

Thank you for any info you can give me. This blog has been very helpful to me in the past.
