The Bureau of Immigration will start providing access to the 2024 Annual Report in January for all registered foreign nationals.

The BI said that all registered foreign nationals are required by law to personally report to the Bureau within the first 60 days of the year, presenting the necessary documents for the annual report.

In order to expedite the procedure, the BI has specified some prerequisites, one of which is the completion of an online registration form that may be accessed through the BI's e-services website.

Additionally, foreign nationals must present their original valid ACR I-Card with valid visas, along with a valid passport.

Pregnant women, foreign nationals with medical issues, individuals 60 years of age and older, those mentally or physically disabled, and foreign nationals under the age of 14 are exempt from physically reporting to the BI.

The physical annual report for the BI's head office in Manila will be conducted at the 3rd Level Center Atrium, Robinsons Manila, and at the Government Service Express Unit of SM Mall of Asia, from Mondays to Fridays, excluding holidays, between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Apart from the two malls, BI offices nationwide may also cater to the reporting.

The BI also highlighted its new project aimed at automating its services for foreign nationals.
