Gday It'sa. There's no tax here on foreign income. Well at least that's what I was told. 5k departure tax? Never heard that one before, Ide be confirming all these things directly with a BI officer or BI certified Agent.Having a PR ACR I card is like having gold or at least so I have heard. Cheers J Hi J Like you, that's what I was told by an American friend who was a permanent resident and used to come and go from the Philippines regularly. It got to the stage where he found that having to pay $500 was a drain on his resources more than anything else, so he renounced it, well that was his story and that was that as they say. I do recall seeing the 5k exit tax somewhere online and trying to find it again, but no luck but never mind. As I'm married to a Filipina lady if we exit the country together and return, I can apply for a Balikbayan visa which is good for 12 months free. Swings and roundabouts I say. Cheers Itsa Hi Itsa. I spoke to BI and they said the only thing you need to depart the Philippines when you have PR is an ECC or an Exit. Clearance Certificate either from a BI office or at NAIA if you have been here more than 6 months, and the cost for the certificate is minimal. I like to have a beer with Duncan, coz Duncan's my mate. Cheers J

Yes Bear it's only P1620 Travel Tax then the ECC if you have been here for more than 6 months is only around P4000. Tickets to Brisbane are only P15,000 on Skyscanner if you book 3 months ahead. Cheers J

CL Overseas declared me a permanent resident in the Philippines about 4 to 5 years ago.
I recently got a Philippines permanent resident Visa.
A permanent resident visa is completely separate from becoming a Philippine Citizen.
