Update on Philippines Visa Fees

[Denis-NFA]

I had to renew my Visa on Wednesday and my ACR-I card and I thought to let others know the cost.

The ACR-I card renewal from 1/7/2017 to 30/6/2018 was Php 2,503
Visa renewal for 6 months from 22/6/2017 to 21/12/2017 4,540
Total 7,043

So if you calculate out the visa extension for 12 months plus the ACR-I card it costs about AUS$330 per year at 35Php to $1.

Must have gone down Denis. My last renewal was 11,500. Have to do mine next month but in Angeles city.

Totally agree ghostbuster

I haven't checked out my older receipts but I'm sure I've paid up to nearly Php 4,000 for 2 months in the past.

One thing I was told is they don't charge express fees anymore so maybe that's the biggest difference.

But there is now a 3 day turnaround.

It takes about 8 hours turnaround from where I am in Argao up to Cebu and back so we asked 'pretty please' if they could do it on the same day.

For 500Php not a problem but don't tell anyone else.

ACR-I Card still takes 30 days.

Cheers

I renewed my visa last Friday 16th June cost PH 1970 which didn't include express lane fee. Because I was there after 2 pm which was the cut-off time for same day service.I had to return on the following Wednesday to collect my passport.

I renew my ACR-1 card in August
