Cebu City seems to be the closest POE.

Unfortunately, Noonsite conflicts with the Cruising Guide to Southeast Asia, Vol. 1: South China Sea, Philippines, Gulf of Thailand to Singapore which states that Tacloban IS a POE.

Camaraderie - What are you basing your statement on?

Thanks

Also:
District Collector Port of Tacloban
Bureau of Customs, Trece Martirez St., Tacloban City
Telephone: (053) 321-3370
MARIETTA JAMAORANOS

Looks like it is a port of entry...but a call first would probably be a good idea.
