Hi all just renewed my visa for another 6 months in Philippines. Just noticed this notice typed under visa extension which reads: ATTENTION Temporary visitors under C.A. No. 613 See 9(a) and under E.O. 408 whose total stay in the country is six (6) months and beyond are required to secure an Emigration Clearance Certificate. (ECC). Can someone explain what this means please instead of me having to go back to immigration in Manila.

Can someone explain what this means please instead of me having to go back to immigration in Manila. I have just filled out one and asked the question of why now is this being enforced as it has been in place for quite some time. The reason given to me was, because so many Aliens treat the Philippines as a haven for fugitives and the increase in Aliens being involved in the importation of illegal drugs this form will now be strictly monitored , anyone caught lying or using a fixer may not be allowed back into the country . I got the impression that they are going to investigate all ECC forms. Note, you will need to take three photos 2x2 with white background, Passport. Make sure you fill it out without trying to Falsify any information ( They will check it). The cost is 500PHP The form is only valid for 30 days . Me thinks it is just another way of treating all Aliens as Atms
