How Bilig verifies and publishes travel information
Last updated: August 14, 2026
This policy describes how Bilig turns route records, airport data, official entry requirements, and destination research into traveler-facing pages. It applies to the public website and the central content used by Bilig products.
Source hierarchy
Entry requirements are prioritized from official government, immigration, foreign ministry, embassy, consular, and recognized regional-authority sources. Route evidence is prioritized from airports, carriers, aviation authorities, and other first-party transport sources. Secondary sources may help find a lead, but they do not replace the official evidence shown to users.
A source must use HTTPS, identify the relevant destination or corridor, and support the specific statement being modeled. A generic country landing page is not treated as proof of a detailed passport-type rule.
Routes and flight duration
A route is labeled verified only when the content record has source-backed evidence, identifiable origin and destination points, and a recorded verification date. Seasonal service remains labeled seasonal. Multiple airport pairs are shown separately when they are supported rather than being hidden behind a single city label.
Flight duration is an approximate planning value derived from the modeled corridor. Bilig does not claim that a flight operates on a particular day or that seats are available. Travelers must confirm schedules with the operating carrier before booking.
Passport, identity, and visa rules
Rules are modeled by document country and, where supported, ordinary, special, service, and diplomatic passport type. National-ID acceptance is kept separate from passport visa status. Maximum stay, rolling-window limits, registration duties, arrival conditions, and other exceptions remain attached to the applicable rule.
When several valid conditional policies apply, Bilig preserves them as separate rules. Missing, stale, unsupported, or conflicting evidence is not converted into a confident visa-free or visa-required claim. The page instead indicates that no verified rule is modeled or that the traveler should recheck the official authority.
Original destination guidance
City summaries are written to answer practical planning questions: what kind of trip the city suits, which themes are relevant, how it connects to nearby places, and what tradeoffs a traveler should expect. They are not copied descriptions or automatically generated lists of landmarks.
Commercial relationships do not change visa outcomes, route-verification thresholds, or destination rankings. Sponsored material, if introduced, must be clearly labeled and separated from editorial rules.
Freshness, corrections, and responsibility
Each source-backed rule or route carries its own verification context. Material changes trigger review; stale or withdrawn evidence can remove a result from indexable discovery. Public pages display a re-verification warning because travel rules and schedules can change without notice.
Corrections can be sent to [email protected]. Include the affected URL, the disputed statement, and an official supporting source. We review material safety or eligibility errors before cosmetic issues and update the page or remove the unsupported claim.
For product limitations and platform behavior, read the Service Policies. Bilig remains planning context; the relevant carrier and public authority retain final responsibility for boarding and admission decisions.
