Info travel from philippines to ecuador- transit via amsterdam

Hi! Welcome on Expat.com.
I know your concern when travelling to a country and your not sure
If 2 weeks is enough or month. In this case it would be better to
Buy a ticket at a travel agency with a open return ticket, you pay
A bit more but it gives you the flexibility to change your travelling date
If you decide to change your mind. Good luck!

Ecuador will want proof of an exit ticket, but it could also be cheap, such as to Peru.  You can get your visa extended up to 180 days, and if you decide to stay once you start the resident visa process you will be good to go.  I would advise going on the Ecuador forum if you are thinking about relocating to Ecuador, for it can be a long process with much paperwork required.

Hi geminiandleo,

I have moved your topic on the Ecuador forum for more visibility.

Thanks

Priscilla

If you look presentable, have the cash to buy a bus ticket to, say, Peru, and don't appear to be a threat to yourself or anyone else....I wouldn't worry about this.  If the EC authorities or an airline were enforcing such rules by, for example, sending travelers back to Manila, folks on this blog would know about it.
