There are new Arrival / Departure cards launched. I have scanned a sample so that travellers may take a look and be prepared, when they have to fill the new forms ...
The Bureau of Immigration (BI) today launched the new machine-readable arrival/departure card (A/D card) that would further reduce processing time for the travel documents of passengers at the airports.
“The new A/D card will help the BI have an accurate, timely and efficient recording and retrieval of the arrival and departure record,” said Commissioner Marcelino C. Libanan who led the launch at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport ( NAIA) Terminal 3.
The new A/D cards will allow passengers to write the required information in the cards and the hand-written information would already be recognizable by computers. Through this new system, BI would do away with the encoding of information, which makes the processing of travel documents longer and more tedious.
“The new A/D card will likewise help us effectively track the movement of people who are likely involved in terrorism, human trafficking, drugs and arms smuggling, and other transnational crimes,” said Libanan.
“The launch of this card is likewise very timely, because this will help us accurately identify and locate any passengers afflicted with a dangerous disease,” the Commissioner added.
The shift to the machine-readable arrival/departure cards is another component of Libanan’s program to cut processing time in the bureau to give better services to the people.
