As third world passport holders, Filipinos may find some places out of reach because of visa requirements. Here are tips to get a better shot at that coveted visa!
If you love to travel, you’d want to visit as many countries as possible. The thrill of waking up in a new city or going through a different airport is a fulfilling experience you can’t get enough of. As a third world passport holder, however, there are countries we can’t visit without applying for a visa first. Japan, South Korea, France, Italy, Canada, and others may seem out of reach because you’ll need a visa to visit.
Embassies will also ask for an itinerary of your trip and accommodation bookings. You can be as detailed as you want in your day-to-day itinerary. You can even include the time you’ll go to certain places. I only put a list of the things I’ll do per day. Mention the things you want to do and places to visit, and how you’ll get to destinations. You don’t have to show actual flights or bus or train tickets – a reservation is enough, unless the embassy asks for actual bookings.
If you don’t have a source of income, you can ask someone to sponsor you. You might have to submit an affidavit of support plus the financial documents of your sponsor and their valid IDs. In my experience, rootedness is a major factor in whether an embassy approves or refuses a visa application. You must show you will leave the country you’re applying a visa for within the days they allow you to stay.
