 What are the primary benefits of holding a Philippines SRRV visa

The SRRV grants multiple privileges including multiple-entry status, indefinite stay, exemption from exit clearance, annual reporting, and travel tax when staying less than a year. Holders also gain access to local healthcare, investment opportunities, and the ability to include dependents in their visa.

Can SRRV holders import personal belongings tax-free
Yes, new SRRV holders are allowed a one-time importation of personal effects worth up to USD 7,000 tax-free. These items must be for personal use and shipped within 90 days of receiving the visa.

Is it necessary to live permanently in the Philippines after obtaining an SRRV
No, the SRRV allows flexibility. You may live permanently or come and go as you please without losing your status, as long as you maintain your deposit and visa compliance.

Can a person below 35 years old apply for SRRV
Generally, applicants must be at least 35 years old, except for former Filipino citizens or dependents. Younger applicants may only qualify under special investment or medical plans approved by the PRA.

Can SRRV holders work in the Philippines
Yes, SRRV holders may work or be self-employed after obtaining a Special Work Permit or Alien Employment Permit from the Department of Labor and Employment.

Are SRRV holders required to renew their visa annually
No, the SRRV is a lifetime visa and does not require annual renewal. However, an annual fee of USD 360 for the principal and dependents must be paid to the PRA for visa maintenance.

Can SRRV deposits be used for investment
Yes, under the Classic Program, the USD 50,000 or USD 20,000 deposit can be converted into active investment in a condominium, long-term lease, or other PRA-approved projects after completing certain conditions.

How can former Filipino citizens benefit from the SRRV
Former Filipino citizens aged 35 and above can apply under the SRRV Smile or Human Touch program with a lower deposit requirement of USD 1,500, enjoying the same rights as other holders, including indefinite stay and re-entry privileges.

Are children of SRRV holders entitled to study in the Philippines
Yes, dependents included in the SRRV visa can legally study at Philippine schools or universities without needing a separate student visa, provided they comply with school enrollment requirements.

Can SRRV holders own vehicles in the Philippines
Yes, they can purchase and register vehicles under their name with the Land Transportation Office (LTO), similar to other foreign residents with valid long-term visas.

Can SRRV holders apply for a Philippine driver’s license
Yes, SRRV holders can apply for a local driver’s license by presenting their passport, SRRV ID, and valid foreign driver’s license or certificate from their country’s embassy.

Is police clearance required for SRRV renewal
No, SRRV holders do not need police clearance every year. It is only required during the initial application process. However, PRA may request updated records in special cases.

Can SRRV dependents get their own visa later
Yes, dependents such as spouses or children may convert their SRRV dependent status into principal SRRV or other visa categories once they meet eligibility criteria and requirements.

Is there a dress code when visiting the PRA office for interviews

Can SRRV holders buy health insurance locally
