The Philippine Retirement Authority (PRetA) is a government-owned and controlled corporation created by virtue of Executive Order (E.O.) No. 1037, signed by former President Ferdinand E. Marcos on 04 July 1985.
On 31 August 2001, through Executive Order (E.O.) No. 26, the control and supervision of PRetA was transferred to the Board of Investments - Department of Trade and Industry (BOI-DTI) from the Office of the President (OP).
On 12 May 2009, through the Republic Act (R.A.) No. 9593, otherwise known as Tourism Act of 2009, PRetA became an attached agency of the Department of Tourism (DOT), and was placed under the supervision of the Secretary.
PRetA is mandated to develop and promote the Philippines as a retirement haven as a means of accelerating the social and economic development of the country, strengthening its foreign exchange position, and at the same time, providing further best quality of life to the targeted retirees in a most attractive retirement package.
The Special Resident Retiree’s Visa (SRRV), the Philippines' retirement visa, is the PRetA's core product which is a non-immigrant, multiple-entry, and indefinite-stay visa.
On 20 October 2010, the PRetA Board rationalized, expanded and branded PRetA’s retirement visa product-line as follows:
(a) SRRV SMILE - Visa deposit is simply deposited for end of term obligations; (b) SRRV Classic – Visa deposit is convertible into property investments; (c) SRRV Courtesy – for former Philippine-based diplomats and former Filipinos; and (d) SRRV Human Touch – for ailing retiree- applicants
To provide a globally competitive retirement program in the Philippines for foreign nationals and former Filipinos that will strengthen the sustainable socio-economic development of the country.
To make the Philippines a globally preferred retirement destination by 2028.
