Visa extension

We will be flying from Hong Kong to Cebu. Can we get our Visa Extension at the airport. Do we need a photo?

You will have to go to the office at Bureau of Immigration Cebu District Office
P. Burgos St., Tribunal, Mandaue City 6014 - dont wear short shorts
No need for a photo but take a photocopy of your passport page with your details and a copy of the page with your entry stamp and 3100 pesos. You may get it done straight away or you may have to come back later to collect you passport.

Take a taxi from the Airport to the Office above, should be about 100 peso and 10 minute ride..

You may be able to do it at the airport on Mactan island but I have never done it or seen a place where it could be done.

If you are staying in Cebu City, it is likely you will pass by the Bureau of Immigration heading to Cebu City from the airport. It is just to the right as you pass by the Mandaue City Hospital.

The Immigration Office website says there is a BOI Office at the Airport, but as above never seen it or heard of anyone whos got an extension there, best thing to do is just ask at the Airport Information desk when you arrive..

I think that yes it is possible to get an extension on arrival at the airport but that there is something not quite satuisfactory about it in that it only gets you up to 38 days in total or something rather than the 59 days you do get if you extend at a BoI office. Getting an extension at an immigration office is not difficult, at all.
