The Bureau of Immigration (BI) and the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) have formalized a data sharing agreement (DSA) to establish clear guidelines in the issuance and implementation of visas for foreign nationals employed in registered economic zones (ecozones).

The agreement, signed in January, ensures that both agencies comply with legal frameworks in the processing of applications for visas, according to a news release Sunday.

Under the DSA, the BI as the disclosing party will provide PEZA with the necessary information gathered from visa applicants.

The agreement ensures that all data-sharing activities strictly adhere to the Data Privacy Act to protect applicants’ personal information.

“This agreement strengthens our commitment to efficient and transparent visa processing while ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and security of shared information,” BI Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado said.

“By working closely with PEZA, we enhance government efficiency while safeguarding the rights of foreign nationals under our jurisdiction.”

PEZA Director General Tereso Panga welcomed the partnership, highlighting its role in facilitating ease of doing business for foreign investors and workers within PEZA ecozones.

Both agencies commit to regularly monitor compliance with security measures and to immediately notify each other in the event of any breach or suspected breach.

The agreement also outlines strict protocols for data retention, destruction, and disposal, ensuring responsible management of shared information. (PNA)
