Requirements to Travel Abroad for Philippines’ Government Employees

When I travel abroad, one of the things I have to do is to apply for a Travel Permit or an Authority to Travel Abroad or also know as Travel Order. For government employees like me, I need to have it for the immigration officer to let me go outside of the country.

I have applied thrice for a permit to travel. It’s easy and I apply 2 to 3 months before my departure date to make sure I’ll have the documents on-hand to show to the immigration officer.

A disclaimer: I work as non-teaching personnel at one of the public schools here in Pasay City. The following requirements I’ll list are the ones that we are required to submit, it may be different from other government agencies.
