Hindi huhulihin ng Bureau of Immigration (BI) ang mga dayuhang overstaying na sa bansa matapos maapektuhan ng nangyaring pagpalya ng air traffic management system sa Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) nitong Enero 1, 2023.
Sa abiso ni BI Commissioner Norman Tansingco, binibigyan nila ng pagkakataon ang mga foreigner na makapag-book ng flight hanggang sa susunod na linggo.
“Considering what happened to many foreign nationals who were unable to leave during their scheduled flights, we issued this advisory to assist them in rescheduling, without having to worry about overstaying,” aniya.
“This extension is given in the spirit of the hospitality of Filipino people. Those who were affected did not mean to overstay their visas, hence appropriate considerations are given to them,” dugtong ni Tansingco.

Idinagdag pa ni Tansingco, kailangan lamang na iharap ng mga banyaga sa BIpersonnnel ang kanilang confirmed ticket na nagpapakita ng kanilang cancelled flight mula Enero 1.
