The Department of Tourism recently announced new policies on visa-free stay in the Philippines for a list of 166 countries plus amended the rules for visitors from China and India.
Chinese Nationals are now allowed to stay for 30 days visa-free provided they join a group tour arranged by a Department of tourism-accredited travel agency.
For visitors from India, a 14-day visa-free stay for Indian nationals who have a valid American, Japan, Australia, Canadian, Shengen, Singapore, or United Kingdom visa will be given.
These visa reforms were intended to increase tourist arrivals in the Philippines.
Do you think this will work? Tutubi thinks just a little, for as long as the basics are in place and tourists really, really want to come here, even if the visa requirements are restrictive, tourists will come...
