MANILA, Philippines — The Bureau of Immigration (BI) on Sunday announced that it distributed updated arrival and departure stamps at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) last December 29 and 30 to maintain the security and credibility of the country’s immigration process. 

BI commissioner Norman Tansingco said such developments  not only uphold the security of the immigration procedures but also prevent the fraudulent activities of “unauthorized entities attempting to replicate or misuse official immigration stamps.”
