Travel Requirements of OFW’s Children

Posted on September 28, 2011 by admin in Work Abroad Tips

If the children of an Overseas Filipino Worker is going to visit the OFW’s host country, what are the travel requirements?

They would need the regular travel documents required by the Bureau of Immigrations.

1. Valid Passport
2. Valid Original Visa for port of entry
3. Return tickets for tourist

If they are minors, they will need to get a clearance from the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).

For minors under a custody dispute, there must be a court order that allows the children to travel to one of their parents.
