PRIVILEGES and BENEFITS of SRRV Holders
(ECO-Friendly tips for the British spouses/partners of UK Spouse Visa, UK Fiancee Visa and other UK Settlement Visa holders or applicants)
As ECO-Friendly discussed in the first part of this information series, the Special Resident Retiree’s Visa (SRRV) is mainly applicable to the British spouses/partners of the UK Spouse Visa, UK Fiancée Visa and other UK Settlement Visa holders or applicants..
Under this type of Philippine visa, the British holders can easily travel in and out of the Philippines without going through the hassles and stress that come with entering the country.
Since all SRRV holders are given multiple-entry/exit privileges and exemptions from obtaining other entry requirements from Philippine government agencies, passing through Philippine immigration is a breeze.
Here are the benefits conferred upon SRRV holders as listed by the Philippine Retirement Agency (PRA):
According to ECO-Friendly, the PRA is a government-owned and controlled corporation attached to the Department of Tourism that is mandated to attract FOREIGN NATIONALS and FORMER FILIPINO CITIZENS to retire in the Philippines.
This is exactly why ECO-Friendly believes that holders of UK Spouse Visa and UK Fiancée Visa should encourage their British partners to apply for the SRRV in order for them to enter and exit the country with ease and comfort without the stress and difficulty which always happens whenever their spouses or partners visit the Philippines.
On the next part, ECO-Friendly will discuss the requirements and supporting documents needed by the SRRV applicants.
