I wasted no time after receiving my visa. I immediately visited the CFO Office in Cebu knowing that it was the only document I needed to obtain my CFO sticker.
Requirements
- passport
- visa
- CFO certificate
- two valid identification cards
- official receipt of the GCP
IDs: PRC, UMID, Voter’s, Philhealth ID or refer to the CFO website.
How did I get the CFO sticker?
I arrived at the CFO office at 1:00 PM with all the necessary documents in hand. Upon entering, a staff member inquired about my purpose and requested the required documents. They also provided me with a form to complete, which was similar to the one used during the GCP seminar. Once I finished filling it out, the staff at Counter 1 reviewed the form.
I patiently waited for a few minutes while the staff reviewed the data. When she returned, she handed me my passport, now adorned with the CFO sticker. To ensure everything was accurate, I carefully examined the details, especially the spelling. Avoiding even the slightest mistake on important documents is crucial, so double-checking is a must. With everything in order, I received my CFO sticker in less than thirty minutes, signifying that all my documents for Japan were now prepared. It was a tremendous relief!
Looking forward to entering Japan as an expat this time. Fingers crossed.
Hello I would like to ask if we can get the CFO here in Japan. is there a way?
Hello! I think, not. This is needed before you can enter and live in Japan or other countries, so I believe you have to do this process in the Philippines.
If you’re in Japan, I’m guessing you’re referring to someone in the Philippines who needs the CFO sticker. She or He needs to do it there.:)
