TRV visa Philippines | Temporary Resident Visa in the Philippines
Moving to a new country is a life-changing journey — and at Asia Relocation Philippines, we’re here to make sure yours starts with clarity and confidence.
Our Philippines visa and immigration services are designed to support individuals and families looking for long-term residency solutions, including the Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). Whether you’re joining your Filipino spouse, planning a new life together, or settling down after years of cross-border love, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
If you’re a foreign national from a country that does not have a reciprocity agreement with the Philippines, but are legally married to a Filipino citizen, you may qualify for a TRV visa. This visa grants you legal residency in the Philippines, allowing you to stay long-term with your family and enjoy peace of mind with your immigration status fully secured.
TRV visa Philippines Process
Eligibility:
Please note that not all nationalities are allowed to apply for a Temporary Resident Visa. Our knowledgeable team will guide you through the eligibility criteria and assist you in determining if you qualify for a TRV.
Change in Circumstances:
In the event of the death, separation, or divorce of the Filipino spouse, the TRV must be canceled, and the foreign national will need to return to the Philippines as a tourist.
Processing Time:
Along with the TRV, you will receive an Alien Certificate Registration (ACR) Card, which serves as your identification card during your stay in the Philippines. Our team will assist you in obtaining the ACR Card, ensuring compliance with all requirements.
Alien Certificate of Registration I-Card (ACR I-Card):
Along with the TRV, you will receive an Alien Certificate Registration (ACR) Card, which serves as your identification card during your stay in the Philippines. Our team will assist you in obtaining the ACR Card, ensuring compliance with all requirements.
Validity and Renewal:
The initial TRV is probationary and valid for one year. Renewal of the visa is typically required every two years, except for Indian nationals who can renew it every five years. There is no maximum limit for renewal as long as the foreign national continues to reside with their Filipino spouse.
Temporary Resident Visa Requirements
To facilitate your TRV application process, the following documents are typically required:
Note:
If you will be working in the Philippines while on a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), you are not required to secure a work permit at the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE).
Templates for Document Preparation:
To assist you with the application process, we provide tailored templates and comprehensive guidance on the necessary documents.
Original Passport:
A valid passport with a minimum of six months’ validity beyond the intended period of stay in the Philippines.
Birth Certificate:
Birth certificate of the Filipino spouse as proof of the marital relationship. It should be issued by the Philippine Statistic Authority (PSA).
Marriage Certificate:
A valid marriage certificate demonstrating the legal union between the foreign national and the Filipino spouse. If the marriage was done outside the Philippines, the certificate must be apostilled by the issuing agency or authenticated by the Philippine Embassy.
National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Clearance:
If you have filed an NBI clearance within six months or more upon your first arrival in the Philippines, this document may be required.
