BOI Terminal 3

[Onemore52]

I do realise that it has been covered before. I did a search and couldn’t find the thread.

So I have to ask:

Whereabouts is the BOI office in terminal 3, so I can head there upon my arrival to get a tourist visa extension?

 I promise to get a screenshot of the answers this time .

Cheers

This article says "3rd level, Government Clearing Center of the NAIA Terminal 3", I've never been there myself though.

Yes, from the front it's on the left down a little hallway just before the departure immigration entrance.

I can understand them not taking foreign currency but not giving change?

Every other BI I've been in (ok only a couple but still) happily give change.

I think Freebie meant exchange or give change for foreign currencies. It’s been a few years, but they did give me change when I paid in pesos.

The little booth where I got ECC-B on the 26th gives change so I am sure the main office would have it too.

Maybe they used to drive a cab?

Considering you can extend online now, why bother going to the BI.

Good point. Has anyone you know or perhaps here on the forum done the online extension yet? Given the government’s tendency to make things difficult I’d be curious if the website actually worked.
