The SRRV is a type of Visa that encourages people from outside the Philippines to retire and invest in the Philippines. The SRRV allows a Expat to gain permanent residence in the Philippines WITHOUT having to marry a Filipina citizen. If you are already married to a non Filipina citizen, or if you are not married, but don’t want to get married, and you want to live permanently in the Philippines,
this kind of Visa is probably your best option. You go into the SRRV in considerable detail below, but for now I just want to describe it in it’s simplest terms. The SRRV is under the jurisdiction of the Philippine Retirement Authority (PRA), whose main office is in Makati Manila. The PRA has defined certain kinds of investments, and has a list of partners offering such investments, such that if you agree to invest in a PRA approved investment they will give you an SRRV. For more information see the PRA website at www.pra.gov.ph
The PRA has a number of offices as listed below
