What if Visa denied

Hey guys,

I'm planning to apply for a visa thru the Philippine Embassy that will allow me to visit my wife and kids in The Philippines.

I just wondered what would happened in case my visa gets rejected/denied for a missing document or whatever reason. Is it going to revoke my no-visa privilege in the future ?

Let's say this way, if you get denied an extension visa at the Bureau of Immigration, will you be asked to get a visa before going back to The Philippines?

I know the U.S has that system with ESTA Countries, if I get denied for a B2 tourist visa or any kind of visa, my ESTA is automatically cancelled and I would need to always get a visa to get into the US.

Give me your thoughts,
Thanks

A little lost on your question

What Visa do you need? - what is your nationality - for most nationalities you don't need a visa - you get one on arrival for 30 days and then you can extend in the Philippines or apply for a different sort of Visa when your here

Cheers

Every nationality must now have a visa bef0ore arrival - this was mentioned last year - and everyone thought it was a rumour.  With Covid the only people that can access are spouses of Filipinos or Filipinos themselves.

None Filipinos must apply for a visa through their own country - Philippines Embassy - again only as per the above and it is allocated as a 9A.

I have just got mine within 3 days from the Philippines Embassy in London.

You re lucky, 7 to 10 business days for the Philippines Embassy in the U.S and more requirements.

Now, if ever the visa is rejected, does it affect our no-visa privilege once the ban will be lift ?

The UK was supposed to have been 7 - 10 working days - but managed it in 3 days from receipt at the embassy.

My understanding from last year was that there was an intention for all nationalities having to get a visa before arrival as they were not going to issue anymore at the airport - there are positives and negatives in this.

My visa was

1.  Section 9a
2.  Multiple entry
3.  1 year validity
4.  Maximum stay 59 days
5.  Can be extended in Philippines.
6.  COVID test on arrival
7.  Quarantine until result is received
8.  Travelling with my Wife and we can stay together

I see, I have checked the requirements from PH embassy in the UK and they seems more relax than here in US.

The issue is i am travelling alone and must prove that my wife is actually in The Philippines
