  Ang pagkakaalala ko sa sinabi sa CFO PDOS (others may correct me if I'm wrong), on your first time going to Australia as a PR, mag-babayad ka ng travel tax ONCE. Pero pag nagbakasyon ka sa Philippines, dun sa next na entry mo sa Australia, you don't need to pay the travel tax again. Yun nga lang, you have to show them the receipt as proof that you already paid before.

  i agree with @sunflower
  
  nakalagay dun sa list of exemptions ng TIEZA yun na Filipinos who are permanent residents of foreign country who stayed in the Philippines for less than a certain period etc etc.. so it means we are still required to pay travel tax.. pagbalik at nagbakasyon, dun nalang ma exempt..

  tama si @sunflower. kaso nagbayad pa ako ng 200Php para sa processing ng travel tax exemption certificate. green slip na ibibigay mo dun sa check in counter. so ang pagkakaintindi ko sa susunod na travel ulit magbabayad na lang ng 200Php para sa processing ulit kasi daw valid for 1 departure only. may kita pa rin ang phil. government sa atin lol. btw, sa davao int'l airport ako sumakay pabalik ng australia. dun na lang ako bababa at sasakay ulit mas safe para sa akin sa laglag bala.
