  • Our Manager told that the documents was pending in your office for approval D.O.T. Cebu. Our manager file there in your office as part of the requirements for MCIA vehicle access pass sticker. Our papers was pending in your office for more than one month. May I know why is it taking so long? Our Airport temporary pass for vehicle was expired already last June 11, 2018. Please kindly give me a feedback about my concern.
