I just want to know, if you guys have an idea about my concern, I have a prospective employer in Turkey, I'm currently living in the Philippines. The employer said that I need to get a tourist visa first, then when I'm already there( Turkey) they will apply for working permit for me. is that possible/legal?

Thank you

Dhae

Hi caar09 ... I can't send any message until now.. that's why I can't reply on you. :)

Hi there, gotta question. I have hired a filipino lady for hsw that ı trust and we made our contract, she got her work visa and we have got our work permit card from turkish authorities. Şo all set legally. But ı believe there is this poea thingy back in philliphines. She is currently in malaysia and we are considering her direct flight to İstanbul. According to your experience, would she face any problems at turkish cuntama since she does not have her poea authorization?

I would appriciate your answer.

Cheers.

TOLGA,

If she depart from Malaysia no need for that document. But if she departs from Philippines the immigration will look for that documents we called (OEC) Overseas Employment Certificate.

Has anyone of you have tried the e-visa for Filipinos?

zekisahin

yes it is possible if you already have a valid visa of any OECD countries

zekisahin

caar09

i know about e-visa.
The Filipinos are granted for e-visa only with a certain condition, to have a valid visa for an OECD country
than u r entitled to get  e-cvisa for one month to be used in 6 months
