26. februar 2019: Sidst opdateret. Dette indlæg består af tip og anden information om ansøgning om en DSWD-rejseafstand inklusive listen over krav og den trinvise ansøgningsproces. Dette gælder kun for filippinske rejsende. En mindreårig defineres som under 18 år.
Det er altid sjovt at rejse med børn. At se udseendet på deres ansigter, når de oplever noget for første gang, er altid uvurderligt. Jeg havde rejst med børn i familien to gange: for det første til Hong Kong for deres meget ventede Disneyland -besøg og for det andet til Tokyo for at besøge en nær slægtning.
Problemet er, at jeg ikke er deres far, bare en onkel, så jeg var nødt til at sikre en rejseklarering for dem.
At rejse med mindreårige, der ikke er dine børn, tilføjer et skridt i hele turen til forberedelse. Du har brug for en Get A DSWD Travel Clearance før din rejse. Undladelse af at sikre en vil forårsage at blive aflæst af immigrationsembedsmændene i lufthavnen. Det er et nødvendigt dokument, at de er nødt til at beskytte børn mod forbrydelser, herunder menneskehandel.

Hvem har brug for en DSWD -clearance?
Ikke alle mindreårige, der rejser til et fremmed land, har brug for en DSWD -clearance. Det er kun påkrævet til følgende:
En mindre rejser alene
En mindreårig ledsaget af en anden person end hans/hendes forældre
Hvis den mindreårige rejser med begge forældre, er der ikke behov for en. Hvis den mindreårige rejser med den juridiske værge, er der ikke behov for en (men du skal have alle papirer for at bevise, at du faktisk er den juridiske værge).
Hvis du ikke er mor eller far eller juridisk værge, har du brug for en DSWD -clearance for hver mindreårig, du rejser med. Hvis det ikke er klart nok: selvom du er en bror, søster, tante, onkel, bedstemor, bedstefar eller fætter til den mindreårige, har du brug for en godkendelse.
Bemærk: Når vi siger “juridisk værge”, mener vi juridisk værge med juridisk dokumentation, der angiver dit værgemål ved lov. Hvis du opfører dig som værge, men du ikke har de juridiske papirer til at vise værgemål, har du stadig brug for en DSWD -clearance for at rejse med den mindreårige.
Fra januar 2014 ser det ud til, at en DSWD -clearance ser ud.
DSWD -godkendelseskrav
Nedenfor er en liste over papirer, der kræves for at sikre en DSWD -rejseklarering. Dette dækker mindreårige, der rejser med nogen, der ikke er deres forælder eller juridiske værge. Hvis den mindreårige rejser alene, er der en separat liste til det med yderligere krav, såsom uledsaget mindre certifikat fra flyselskaberne.
Der har været mange ændringer i kravene. Nu er der en separat liste over papirer for dem, der rejser for første gang, og dem, der har rejst før med den ikke-forældres ledsager.
VIGTIG! Jeg har ansøgt om min nevø og niese flere gange nu, og kravene ændres hver gang! Det er absolut frustrerende at være ærlig, fordi jeg ikke kunne forudsige, hvilke andre papirer de ville have brug for fra mig. Og de opdaterer ikke deres websted i overensstemmelse hermed. Derfor bedes du ringe til DSWD inden din ansøgning for at være helt sikker.

Dette er kravene til mindreårige, der rejser for første gang med en ledsager, der ikke er deres forælder.

Mulige yderligere krav
DSWD may require additional papers aside from those listed above, so make sure you apply early and NOT too close to the travel dates so you have time to secure them.
Here are some other requirements that they might look for based on my experience and those of some of our readers.
Roundtrip ticket of the minor and companion. In my experience, sometimes they ask for it; sometimes, they don’t. If you’re already booked, best to bring a copy of the ticket. If your flights are not yet booked, it’s best to just call the office before your application to confirm.
Notarized Affidavit of support with Undertaking of sponsor (showing employment status and salary). Some sources say this is a requirement, and one of our readers was also asked to provide this. The official DSWD website’s FAQ page lists this as a requirement. but it’s hard to trust the website because it’s messy as eff.
Proof of financial capability of Sponsor. This can be Certificate of Employment, latest ITR, bank Statements, etc. of sponsor (parent, legal guardian or other person/agency shouldering the expenses). In my experience, I was never asked to submit this.I also always bring a copy of this, but they never asked to see it. maybe it’s a new requirement, maybe they ask applicants depending on the situation. call the office where you plan to submit to be 100% sure. just bring it with you to be on the safe side.
Invitation Letter, only if the purpose of travel is to visit a friend or relative, or the minor won’t be staying in a hotel.
Copy of parents’ passports. only if the parents are based abroad.
That’s about it.
VIGTIG! If we haven’t stressed this enough, let us say this again: call THE DSWD field office where you wish to apply for the updated list of requirements. THE requirements change EACH and every time so it’s hard to keep track!
Skriftligt samtykke eller erklæring om samtykke?
Update: October 2018.
A notarized Affidavit of Consent is now a requirement.
In my previous applications, I was never asked to submit an Affidavit of Consent. I would usually just present a simple non-notarized written consent signed by both parents and they accepted it. However, in my most recent application, they asked for a notarized Affidavit of Consent for the first time.
So to be on the safe side, I strongly recommend that you secure a Notarized Affidavit of Consent to travel for a couple of reasons. First, because a notarized affidavit can take the place of the simple written consent. Meaning, if DSWD asks for a simple consent letter, they will accept the affidavit because it’s a more binding legal document. On the other hand, if they require an affidavit and you don’t have it, the written consent may not suffice. It’s safer to have the affidavit.
The second reason: because you might also need it when passing through Immigration. Normally, the DSWD Clearance is enough to let you through, but having that affidavit can be more convincing, if the officer has doubts.
The affidavit I submitted had the following details.
Travel dates
Destination and origin
Minor’s passport number
Contact details of parents/legal guardian
Signature of the parents
In addition, if the minor is traveling with someone who isn’t his/her parent, it would be wise to include the details of theledsager:
Name of the companion
Relationship of the companion to the minor
Companion’s passport number
Don’t forget to have it signed by the parents.

You must apply at the DSWD field office that has jurisdiction over the minor. If the minor lives in region IV, apply in Alabang. If the minor resides in Metro Manila, apply in Sampaloc, Manila.
They started implementing this policy in January 2018. prior to this, applicants could apply at any field office, even if the minor doesn’t reside in their region. but that’s not the case anymore. You must apply at the designated DSWD field office now.
3. Indsend kravene på DSWD -feltkontoret og vent på din godkendelse.
Here’s the step-by-step process that you will go through once you are at the DSWD office. The process below details my experience applying at the Alabang office, but according to the DSWD website, the process at all branches are almost the same.
Tell the security Guard that you’re there for travel Clearance. ask for a Sequence Number.
Register in the logbook while waiting for your number to be called.
When your number is called, submit all the requirements to the Social worker for the initial screening. He/she will check if the requirements are complete and authentic.
If all your papers are okay, the Social worker will interview you and
