Are you sure about the:
Nicaragua – Visa issued upon arrival ($20) – All visitors are required to obtain a Tourist Card on arrival ($10)
And the South American list? What are the best couple of souces for me to verify the info at? Because about Nicaragua I saw something 180° different in a visa agency’s information. But it looks like you have done your homework. Thanks for any further info you can give.

Hello!
Thank you for visiting my site! Kindly check your e-mail. Thanks! 😊
Im confused. Embassy of Mexico here in Phil, says that for Filipino Tourist, one needs visa to enter mexico. I am coming from the US and would like to have a side trip to Mexico. I am flying from a US city. Can I obtain a Mexico Visa at the airport when I arrive in Mexico?
What kind of US Visa do you have? Tourist? Multiple or Single Entry? Either way, you have to apply for a Visa to enter Mexico. They will ask you when you want to go to Mexico… the exact date and how many days you will be staying… they will also ask you for your financial statement in the past six months.. You don’t have to wait that long… as long as you have a set travel plan.. 5 days tops…you should be able to get it.
I got mine in Costa Rica, I applied for it on a Monday, I got it on a Wednesday. And to answer your other question… Visa cannot be obtained at the Airport.
Good Luck & Safe Travels
Hi are you sure no need a visa for filipino citizen to go to Iran?
Hello Guys,
is there anyone filipino here who travelled from Philippines to Brazil? Is there any hassle at BI at the airport ?
Answer pls ?
Hi. I’ve been to Brazil. No, I never encountered any problem. There are a few things that to need to consider before traveling outside Asia.
1. If you DO NOT have any visa for USA, Canada or Shengen Countries… Make sure you a purchase a ticket that does NOT pass through ANY U.S cities & territories. You can have lay over in Europe but not in the US. These tickets are usually 3 times the amount you see in Orbitz or Kayak. Airlines that provide these services are KLM, British Airways, Liberia etc.
2. You need to purchase a round trip ticket. Regardless whether you have an ongoing ticket to Peru, Bolivia or Chile. You need to show proof that you have a return flight to the Philippines.
3. You might have a difficulty at the Airline counter there in the Philippines. They might badger you with all these questions like “What are you gonna do in Brazil?”. It happened to me on my way to Turkey. They delayed my flight for 6 freakin days.
4. Make sure you have hotels booked etc. Also, some Officials will randomly ask tourists for proof that you have funds. Just be aware of that.
Other than these things, I am sure you are gonna have a great time in Brazil.
Good Luck!
