Before August 2019, a certain industry in Cambodia and the Philippines was thriving and evenly matched.

However, after the dialogue between the government and the government in August, the relevant Cambodian spokesperson announced that the renewal and renewal of Pagcor (license) would be stopped.

Cambodia began large-scale evacuation and relocation. Sihanoukville and other places were empty of people, as if nothing had happened.

As the giant wheel of the times rolls forward, the focus of Southeast Asia begins to focus on the Philippines.

I have introduced the process of coming to the Philippines in other articles

Apply for a passport---Apply for a tourist visa---Book a flight ticket---Print the return itinerary, and open an international Roaming---customs clearance, airport pick-up---check-in, onboarding;

When joining the company, the passport and tourist visa will be handed over to the building administration office by the company administration, and then sent to the immigration bureau by the building administration office Apply for the relevant work permit with the Ministry of Labor.

Before August, the Philippines mainly implemented two types of work visas for migrant workers:

1. Temporary work permit SWP, price 2WP, valid for 3 months, and can be renewed upon expiration ;

2. The official work permit is 9G, valid for 1 year, 2 years, etc., and the price is 10WP, 11WP. It must be re-applied after expiration;

After August, the Philippines will The visa has been changed, with a new labor card AEP and a new tax card;

The existing work permit types are as follows:

1. Temporary work permit PWP, price 1.5WP, It is valid for 3 months and can be renewed upon expiration;

2. Official work permit 9G (unchanged);

3. Labor card AEP, the lowest price is 2.5Wp;

Whether you are applying for PWP or 9G, this AEP must be applied for.

As for the tax card, it can be understood as personal income tax, but this thing is paid by the company, and it is paid every month, 5000P.

So the current work permit type is PWP+AEP or 9G+AEP.

So the main line of visa is:

First time: tourist visa (9A)

After joining: PWP+AEP

2-3 Month later: 9G+AEP

However, according to industry experience, many companies stipulate that 9G is a voluntary choice.

The temporary work permit can be renewed continuously. Even if you do not return to the country for half a year after the renewal, you can renew the temporary work permit after ECC customs clearance. At the same time, the tourist visa is also being renewed.

The temporary work permit is a small sticker affixed to the tourist visa.

If you return to the country with a temporary work visa, you will return to the country with a tourist visa. If you return to the country with a tourist visa, the temporary work visa will be invalid. If you want to come again, you will need to apply for a new tourist visa.

So here is a good explanation why if you have a temporary work visa in the Philippines, you will not be approved for temporary leave to return to your country.

Most of the contract periods in the Philippines are half a year. Only after half a year can you return to the country and take 15 days of paid leave, including round-trip air tickets.

When 9G returned to China, he came back with a work visa, and he came back with a work visa again. 9G is a card similar to an ID card.

9G is a legal certificate for the long-term employment of all migrant workers in the Philippines. It is not only applied in this industry, but also in all walks of life.

So should I choose to apply for a temporary work permit or a 9G formal work permit?

In fact, we cannot just look at this industry. We can analyze it from the validity period and the starting point of the government’s introduction of these two types of work permits.

If you only work for half a year, just choose a temporary work permit. If you want long-term development, it is recommended to get a 9G work permit.

I plan to develop in the Philippines for a long time, and I have almost completed my 9G work permit for one year.

When applying for a temporary work permit, employees cannot know whether they have applied for a temporary work permit. We can only guess whether it is formal or not based on the building.

Moreover, during the application and renewal period, employees hold tourist visas. During this period, most employees are at work, and they are also working illegally during this period. But why does the company dare to let employees go to work? Because the building The company will be notified in advance whether there will be an inspection.

This is also the reason why the safety factor will be much higher if you choose a reliable building.

Some time ago, various buildings were inspected and some employees whose work visas were renewed were on leave for this reason. All employees with 9G work visas are working normally.

To apply for a 9G official work permit, employees can go to the Immigration Bureau website to check their work permit information, how long it is valid, and its type.

For example, I checked an example of my work permit as follows:

Jigong Public License Plate Number→Philippine City Guide

I am in Jinshenglong, so there is the name of the building, and there is also 9G commercial (convertible), as follows;

I also got a piece of information here, I can find these, and it is also sideways Reflecting a formality of the building.

This query method is shared with everyone.

I hope everyone has a certain understanding of 9G and temporary work permit.
