Description
Travel Document
A Travel Document (TD) is a one-way document that allows Filipino/s to travel to the Philippines at the most direct possible route, including going through transit. It is valid for 30-days from the date of issuance.
A TD is issued in lieu of a passport, which has expired or was lost, to allow them to travel to the Philippines from the port of departure (for Switzerland, i.e., Zurich International Airport) and transit.
A TD cannot be used to visit other countries for the purpose of tourism or business. TDs must be surrendered to the DFA ASEANA Office or DFA Consular Office before they can be issued anew their Philippine passport, subject to the submission and evaluation of their complete documents.
Travellers who entered the Philippines using a TD are not allowed to leave the Philippines without a valid Philippine passport.
