BI eases visa rules for departing foreigners

THE Bureau of Immigration (BI) has further eased its rules by allowing the departure of foreigners with approved but unimplemented visas.

Immigration Commissioner Jaime Morente said that he has approved the easing of the visa rules to enable aliens whose applications for various types of visa were already approved by the bureau to leave during the period of the enhanced community quarantine against the Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic.
