Bureau of Immigration(BI)

Hi, a very good day.

We would like to know if our member of the family already back in Philippines from Dubai, UAE. We lost communication since July 18.
I have checked from his company that they gave him flight tickets back to Philippines last July 19. 

Passenger: NOEL VILLAMOR EGUIA , December 28, 1971

We are already okay to know if he entered Philippines and the family will have peace of mind.

Thank you very much.

Regards,

MICAH EGUIA

Good day.

We are the immediate family of the person we are looking for. I am the wife and we have the right to know the whereabouts of the person and the kids are in worry.

We need only the information of entry to Philippines in order to know what is the next step we need to do. He might be in jail or permanently lost.

Appreciate your assistance.
