Dear sirs I have noticed that under Executive order 408. Is Ireland citizens allowed to enter the Philippine without visa. But it’s doesn’t mentioned clearly if all type of Ireland passports allowed under this category or only ordinary passport. As I’m holding Irish travel documents ( travel documents) emergency travel documents issued by Ireland government and valid for 3 years could you please confirm if I’m eligible to enter the Philippine without visa. Many thanks
