Can I extend my Philippines tourist visa once in-country?

Extension policies vary. In most cases, travelers can apply for an extension at the local Public Security Bureau before the current visa expires. Travel Visa Pro can be contacted for specific guidance.

Overstaying can result in fines, detention, deportation, and difficulties with future visa applications. Travelers should ensure their stay falls within the authorized period.

What if my passport doesn't have enough validity?

Passports must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended stay. If a passport does not meet this requirement, Travel Visa Pro can assist with expedited passport renewal before applying for the visa.

What's the difference between applying through Travel Visa Pro and going directly to the consulate?

Applying through Travel Visa Pro means the company reviews documents for errors, handles submission on the applicant’s behalf, and provides real-time tracking. Applying directly to the consulate requires managing the entire process independently, with limited support if issues arise.
