Davao City 1st District Rep. Paolo Duterte has revised his request for international travel clearance, now seeking to visit only the Netherlands and Australia.

His initial request included 17 countries for travel between December 15, 2025, and February 20, 2026, but was questioned by the House of Representatives due to overlapping session days and lack of specified purpose.

The revised request specifies travel from January 3 to January 15 and on January 30, 2026.

The stated reasons for the trip are to visit his father, former president Rodrigo Duterte, who is detained in the Netherlands for crimes against humanity charges, and his daughter studying in Australia.
