Dear Mr. Capiendo:

Greetings from the Commission on Filipinos Overseas!

This refers to your request for data on inflow of Filipinos coming from Europe especially Italy.

We regret that we are unable to provide the information requested since data on inflow of Filipinos going back to the Philippines are not collected by the CFO. The CFO’s primary clientele are Filipino emigrants who will permanently live in other countries and are required to undergo the CFO’s Pre-departure Orientation Seminars or Guidance and Counseling Program before departure.

However, arriving foreign nationals, including Filipino citizens, are required to go through the Philippine’s Bureau of Immigration (BI) upon their arrival at the airport. The BI therefore is the appropriate authority to provide you with the information that you need. The BI’s main office may be reached via their hotline at (+632) 8465-2400, or for a more detailed directory you may visit this page in their website: http://www.immigration.gov.ph/contact-us/main-office 

To further improve our services, may we also kindly request for your feedback through this link: https://goo.gl/forms/FeSqdqLNMoNkInCo2 (Policy, Planning and Research Division Client Satisfaction Form). The form is brief and will only take a minute to complete. Thank you very much in advance for your response.


Thank you very much.


Sincerely,


MR. FRANCISCO S. CALINGASAN
FOI Decision Maker
