Affidavit of Support and Guarantee in PH Consulate Sydney, Australia

Notarial services are available at the Philippine Consulate General in Sydney for Filipino nationals abroad who want to submit notarized documents, including the Affidavit of Support & Guarantee (ASG), which is often intended to be used in the Philippines just before departure.

Notarial services are available exclusively by appointment. Before scheduling an appointment, please make sure you understand all of the requirements. On the day of the appointment, please bring all of the requirements (filled out in BLACK ink). Philippine Consulate General in Sydney is located at the Philippine Center, Level 1, 27-33 Wentworth Avenue Sydney, NSW 2000 Australia. A passport and a valid ID must be submitted with the ASG application. PCG’s office is open Monday thru Friday from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

The issuance of a tourist/visitor visa or admittance into the country cannot be guaranteed by the presence of an ASG. It serves as a kind form for the supporting documents required for getting a tourist/visitor visa. ASG documents are usually requested by Philippine Bureau of Immigration (BI) officers when Filipinos are sponsored by relatives or intend to spend time with relatives in Australia.
