    IMPLEMENTATION OF THE LONG-STAY VISITOR VISA EXTENSION (LSVVE)



    MEMORANDUM ORDER No. RADJR-2013-007

    Pursuant to Memorandum Circular No. RADJR-2013-002, the following guidelines are hereby issued in connection with the implementation of the LSVVE:
    1. Applicability – The LSVVE shall apply to all nationals.

    2. Extension of Tourist Visa – Subsequent LSVVEs may be applied for during the last thirty (30) days of the previously issued LSVVE, or upon the expiry of a regular visa extention.

    3. Restriction on Extensions – The approval of the Commissioner shall be required for visa extensions when the number of months applied for would exceed the 16-month limit.

    Foreign nationals with an accumulated total stay near the 16-month cap from the date of their latest arrival should be informed of the preceding restriction should they apply for additional visa extensions.

    No LSVVE shall be issued to visa-required nationals whose stay exceeds twenty-four (24) months and thirty-six (36) months for non visa-required nationals.

    4. Payment and Fees – An additional One Hundred Pesos (Php 100.00) as cost of the sticker visa shall accrue for the account of the Bureau of Treasury.

    Applicable visa extension fees shall still be collected based on the schedule of fees for the entire six (6) month period.

    5. Implementation – The initial implementation on the LSVVE shall be limited to the BI Main Office in Intramuros, Manila until further notice.

    Yeah that does. I wonder if when I arrive in Manila if I can go get one even though I just got in country? Worth a try I guess.

    I do hope its not to complicated. Just look at this Visa Fee page..:eek:

    The Bureau of Immigration, Philippines Official Website - VISA EXTENSION FEES (Updated!)

    I have roughly worked out if you go the two monthly route for year..

    21-59 -- 3.03K.P.
    2M-4M--7.8K.P. ( Inc I-card USD@44 )
    4M-6M--2.83K.P.
    6M-8M--4.24K.P. ( Inc Cert of Res Temp Visitor )
    8M-10M--2.83K.P.
    10M-12M--2.83K.P.
    Annual report 310P
    Total For 12M -- 24.18K.P. ( Roughly 2K.P/M or $45/M or £30/M or EU35/M )

    Have checked here in Bacolod, Yes they know about it, & according to them the 6 month visa is only available from the Manila office.

    After six months you will need the exit clearance. That should be the only fee you have to pay. Technically if the visa is 6 months it would be assumed you are here for less than six months, by a couple hours anyways. But we all know how common sense works here. Just get the exit clearance and no hassle.
