bandos2000 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 all manner of people and departments can say its ok to travel, but you still have to get through philippine immigration. its a bit like playing russian roulette, never know if you will get through or not. if traveling alone makes it harder. in fairness they are just trying to protect their citizens, bit over protective if you ask me , and it makes it difficult and frustrating for the honest ones. best we can hope is this martial law ends soon, and things get back to normal. remember the first time i took my gf to thailand, was leaving together from clark, i was worried she would get stopped, but in the end it was me they wouldnt let through , forgot about the exit clearance thats required after being in the phils just over 6 months, had to forego those tickets ,as couldnt pay it at the airport anymore, pissed about that.

ALFREDO Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Why don't you check your girlfriends intentions This sounds fishy Not at all. Read, some other opinions in the thread, from posters, who know what they are talking about the difficulties of Philippine women to fly out of their country, leave the Philippines.

Asia2000 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 * Guarantee letter from you, taking full economic responsibility for her abroad, and her return flight. * 1000$ cash in her wallet, many have been asked to show their money, and turned away when they only have a few 100$. * Re route as mentioned before. * Alternative: You join her in Philippines, and travel together. Have been reported easier in many situations, in local forums. If she's young, not much cash, no guarantee letter - questions are likely to be asked.

Ulic Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Under the best of circumstances it would be difficult for your GF to leave the Philippines (50-50 chance, almost zero chance if she has been married) Under the present circumstances you should be prepared for the worst. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NomadJoe Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Saw this on the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs website... https://www.dfa.gov.ph/index.php/2013-06-27-21-50-36/dfa-releases/2914-dfa-raises-alert-level-2-for-thailand 20 May 2014 – The Department of Foreign Affairs has raised the Alert Level for Thailand from 1 (Precautionary Phase) to 2 (Restriction Phase) in view of recent political developments in that country. Alert Level 2 is issued when there are real threats to the life, security, and property of Filipinos arising from internal disturbance in or external threat to the host country. Under Alert Level 2, Filipinos in Thailand are instructed to restrict non-essential movements, avoid public places and prepare for evacuation if necessary. Under Alert Level 2, the Department of Labor and Employment allows only overseas Filipino workers with existing contracts (balik-manggagawa) to return to their host country. The Philippine Embassy in Bangkok advises Filipinos residing in or traveling to Thailand to avoid the rally sites and large gatherings and to refrain from taking part in the protest or other political activities. Everyone is advised to continue exercising extreme caution and vigilance and to closely monitor developments. END It doesn't seem to affect travelers who are tourists... Yeah, I posted that earlier. It has the exact answer to the OP's question in it. Can no one see my posts or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Filipina who want to leave Pi, will be asked questions at airport, and if the lady are insecure in her replies, don't have much cash, don't have a visa, etc = many get denied to leave. Real life. Check out PI forums. Edited May 24, 2014 by Asia2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seducedbytheseas Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 @ Asia 2000... I was only refering to the DFA's decision to allow travel to Thailand. Philippines Immigration is another story. It is common knowledge what is required for Filipina's to travel outside the country as this information is usually given at the time they apply for their passport. All common questions asked of any SE Asian immigration officer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Well, not me but a Filipino There are 1000s over filipinos here and it happens quite a lot. They got a work contract to come to another part of the world. Sometimes the people in charge of letting you get out want a little something, something I think you can get in their face a bit and refuse and they back down though so it depends how forceful you are.
