So can she just walk in? That is the question.

And the answer is yes. Walk right in and present her documents. Done!

My fiancée is picking up her visa today. She has done siminar allready, just needs the sticker. Does she have to register online in order to pickup her CFO sticker.?

No she does not need an appointment or to register, she only needs to stop by CFO with her passport and the certificate to get the sticker affixed.

My fiance and I checked with the CFO desk at Manila Terminal 3 before she did her CFO. They said that after one does the CFO and has the certificate, one still needs to call in and let the CFO folks know you are coming. Apparently there has to be some communication between the facility that did the CFO and the airport location that attaches the sticker. Also, be aware that the CFO sticker desk in Terminal 3 (Cebu Pacific, PAL domestic, Delta and others) has much more limited hours than the CFO desk in Terminal 1.

Thank for for updating your timeline. (My Assistant, then edit/add my timeline.)

I do remember from my seminar that they can meet you at the airport for your sticker but it has to be scheduled in advance since they don't always have someone manning their desk there. Personally, I'd rather get that sticker at their office than to be at their mercy on the day I'm leaving.

There is a bit of miscommunication. The call is made by you to the CFO desk in NAIA two days prior to you leaving. You set an appointment time to meet and in what terminal and where is the desk located is all you need to know. On the day of your flight, it would be advisable to call ahead and reconfirm.

For step by step instructions <click here> scroll three quarters of the way down the page, just past the CFO walk through.
