  • Date when you should leave
  • Dates when you can enter the country
  • How many times you’re allowed to visit a country
  • Details of your work rights and/or other labor-related information

Types of Tourist Visas

1. visa-free.

Visa-free allows you to enter a country without the need for a visa. You are given a specific amount of time for your stay.

2. VISA-ON-ARRIVAL

Visa-on-Arrival (VOA) is granted upon entry at the airport of the country you’re visiting. There is no application required beforehand. You will be assisted by the immigration officials who will be the ones issuing your visa after all required paperwork and fees have been taken care of.

3. VISA-REQUIRED

Visa-required needs you to apply for a visa in the embassy or consulate before traveling into the country you plan to visit (for business or tourist visas). You’ll be asked to provide supporting documents proving your medical status, financial capacity , prior travel history, and others.

eVisa is convenient as it allows you to apply via the internet. The actual visa is stored in the immigration’s database and a corresponding passport number will be linked to it for verification.

Requirements for Visa Application

Each country you visit will require you to submit requirements based on their policies. So don’t be surprised if the occasional hiccup occurs.

It happens.

However, there are documents and resources that you absolutely must have and prepare in advance. Having these will save you a lot of time and help avoid any hassles.

  • A passport that is valid for six months minimum
  • A completely-filled out visa application form
  • Previous visas
  • Passport photos
  • Travel and Medical Insurance
  • Proof of financial capacity

These are the most common requirements you should have with you always.

Make sure to visit the country’s official immigration website for details beforehand so you’ll know exactly what you’ll need.

Tips to Get Approved for Visa Faster

Here’s the thing about applying for Visas: It’s not 100% “standard” each time.

You might get approved without much fuss one time and then be rejected completely even when you submitted the same set of paperwork.

While the following tips don’t guarantee you’ll get approved automatically, they help in increasing your chances of getting approved quickly.

1. Complete and bring all paperwork and related documents

Embassy officials aren’t your teachers. You can’t simply say “ Follow up ko na lang later ma’am ” when you realize you forgot an important document.

They won’t accept it if it’s incomplete. Save yourself and others the hassle by being diligent in your preparation. Doing so ensures the whole process runs smoothly.

In completing forms, be thorough and accurate. During the interview, provide sufficient details but don’t go overboard.

It’s not about being “makwento” or casual to feign confidence. Just answer what they ask for in a polite yet confident manner.

2. Radical Honesty for the reason of your visit  

If Brother Bo Sanchez promotes “Radical Patience” as a secret to building wealth , you have to apply “Radical Honesty” when stating the reason for your visit.

Make sure to apply for the appropriate visa (student, visitor, are different) and be true in your intentions.

3. Proof of Financial Capacity

Here are some of the most common documents that might be required for proving your solvency/financial capacity:

Employed Person:

  • COE – Certificate of Employment
  • Most recent payslips
  • Income Tax Return (ITR)

Self-employed:

  • Copy of Business Permit
  • Tax statements
  • Bank Statement and Financial Reports (most recent)
  • Copies of credit cards, bank certificates, or bank statements (personal)
  • Proof financial assets
  • Documents proving period of time and date of retirement
  • Pension-related documents

Students/Minors

  • Sponsorship letter (from guardians/parents) with corresponding documents showing proof of solvency
  • Official documentation from school/university as proof of scholarship along with the complete details (duration, etc.,)
  • Proof of investments or financial assets
  • Copies of personal financial documents like bank statements and credit cards
  • Sponsorship letter with corresponding documents showing proof of solvency

4. Proof showing that you won’t be overstaying

Embassies want to see proof that you have strong ties here that will urge you to go back to your mother country.

This is to prevent risks of overstaying through illegal means. These are the most common ones:

  • Leave of absence or Certificate of employment
  • Proof of ownership of property or business
  • Documents showing proof that you’re enrolled here currently
  • Leave of absence
  • Letter from sponsors emphasizing reasons you won’t be overstaying

Non-Visa Requirements

1. Passport validity length

  • Check the expiration date on your passport and make sure it’s still good for 6 months.

2. Fingerprinting

  • Plenty of countries require that all visitors from foreign nations provide their fingerprints upon arrival. Anyone refusing to do so will not be granted entry or worse, be apprehended by authorities.

3. Blank passport pages

  • A good number of countries require visitors to have the minimum number of blank pages on their visas. Note that endorsement pages are not counted.

4. Criminal record

  • Some countries (e.g Australia, Canada, Fiji, New Zealand and the United States [351]) routinely deny entry to non-citizens who have a criminal record.
  • There are countries who will deny visiting non-citizens who have a criminal record. US, Australia, New Zealnd, and Canada are examples.

5. Vaccination

  • Almost all African nations require that visitors present an International Certificate of Vaccination prior entry. There are some countries that only require vaccination if they came from a known infected area or have visited one recently.

Traveling abroad has never been easier. Whether it’s on nearby ASEAN countries or other must-visit continents, the ability to travel visa-free is a huge perk for us Pinoys.

You get to bypass the arduous (and sometimes frustrating) step of applying for a visa, which is not really a hassle-free process here in our country.

Let’s hope more countries open their soil to Filipinos without the need for the visa, so we can get to experience and enjoy what other nations and cultures have to offer.

What are the Advantages of Traveling to Visa-Free Countries for Filipinos

The advantages refer to the helpful effects of traveling to visa-free countries for Filipinos.

1. Saves you Money

Traveling to visa-free countries allows you to save money. You do not need to apply for a travel visa which probably costs thousands of pesos to cover the processing fee charged by the embassy of the destination country. Plus, the fact that there is no assurance that your visa application will be granted.

Some countries only offer a 1-year single/multiple entry visa to their borders, this means that every year you need to spend cash to process a visa.

2. Allows you to travel immediately

Visa-free countries allow you to travel immediately with little to no preparation. You can take advantage of the long weekends plus 1-day leave (hahaha) in the Philippines to enjoy 4 days 3 nights tour to a visa-free country.

When a long weekend shows up in your schedule, you can just purchase an airline ticket ahead of time and you are good to go. There are airfare promotions from airline companies that you can utilize to save more.

However, when traveling to countries that require a visa,  you have to consider the visa validity duration, which must coincide with your scheduled vacation leave in your company, and it should also coincide with an affordable airline ticket. Otherwise, you will probably have a hard time making a decision to carry out your plans or just cancel them.

3. No need to fill out visa application form and submit requirements

Visa-free countries do not require you to fill out a visa application form and submit requirements.

4. You will gain Travel Experience

Traveling outside of the Philippines is not always a walk in the park or pure enjoyment. Sometimes, you will also encounter issues and problems that you can learn something from. Take note of the troubles you encounter and the solutions that you have done. Make sure that when you go out of the country, you will reduce the chance that it will happen again.

5. Experience Different Cultures and Seasons

When you travel outside of the country, you will be exposed to different cultures aside from the Philippines. You will know the dos and don’ts in your destination country.

You will have a bird’s eye view of how the locals live their lives, the cost of living, popular local food, discipline, weather, dress code, and history.

You can also compare the different airline inflight food to know which among offers the best-tasting budget food.

Hi, Good morning.

I have some queries to ask. Currently I am residing here in Qatar working in F&B department. Next week, I will be going to Sri Lanka as a short visit and do sightseeing with my Sri Lankan friends.

Do we have a Visa there? Or is it Visa on Arrival? If it’s Visa on Arrival what are the requirements that needs to be prepared? Hope you will answer my queries as soon as possible.

Thank you! ?

Hello. I had fun reading all those comments here. And I’ve never been seen someone who asks questions same as what I concerned, please help me to understand more the terms that they’ve used “free visa” does it means, that once I have a passport (Philippines Passport) can I already book my flights to those countries who have listed here? Directly? Or do I need to go in embassy first? Is there any processes (show money, requirements, payments) needed before I can go to that particular country? Hope you to help me. Thanks

Please update your list. Zambia is not visa free for Philippine Passport Holders as of October 2015. We also cannot get visa upon entry.

Hi, I’m a Filipina with a boyfriend I met through a dating site. We’re almost 3 years now. He want me to go to the UK by applying a working visa and find a job when I get there. Is this possible?

That is not possible. You will only be given a working visa to the UK if you have a job offer from an employer there. If you are his only online gf, It is better for him to come visit you. to see if he is real or not. He doesn’t seem to be educated because he is unaware of the fact that you cannot apply for a work visa there. Pnly EU nationals can just go there and look for work. But after Brexit, that will also stop. Ask him to spend some money.. consult a lawyer..if he has less money to spend, he can consult a travel agent… if he has none, then better look for another online boyfriend… there are thousands in your website right?

You should be mindful of your words. Question is about British and Filipino citizens who want to live and work in the United Kingdom. Ano paki mo doon sa Pakistan?

Careful about your words… Specially if you are referring to the whole nation. The Pakistan and Philippines have good diplomatic relations. Do you know a number of legal and illegal Filipinos who are working/living in Pakistan as well but we never tagged or generalized them as illegal.. I am pretty sure no such case has been registered.

According to my personal experience staying almost a decade here in the Philippines, If i start writing about your nation it will be quite painful. But i never did, i always defend Philippines and Filipino people.

Hi! I am a Filipina and I have a working Visa here in Japan. I am currently working here. I am not yet a permanent resident in Japan. This coming holidays, I would like to travel to other countries for a short vacation. Is it possible for me? I really wanted to visit and learn cultures of other countries. I tried to apply for a US Visa recently but they denied my application for some reasons. Then I decided to just go to the countries which do not require VISA. Is it possible for me to go to Hongkong, Singapore, Malaysia, Maldives without a VISA and with my status? What are other requirements if the country of destination is VISA-free for Philippine Passport Holder?Please advice me. Thank you very much.

I wish the UK would allow Pinoys here without Visa – but they worry they will not go home, I say let them stay and work here, nicer people than most British 😉 and the women are nicer looking lol

Maam Fehl. Is a Phillipine passport holder need visa to enter Turkey for short stay like 4 hours only ?This is about transit from Philippines to Turkey then London.

I think you won’t need a visa if you will not leave the transit lounge at the airport

Filipinos can now travel to Myanmar without visa ~ effective January 04, 2014

I’m mexican getting married to philippina my cuestión is if I’m married to her can i stay and live in Philippines ?

Great list!

My wife (from Negros Occidental) will be very happy to read this.

I’ve just discovered the site and am enjoying reading many of the articles.

Will be sticking around for sure 🙂

Happy about that 🙂

My Japan visa approved 2days only at UHI agency makati. I’ve been in Japan very nice country I love to visit again my 90days vacation is not for me but anyway thank-you JAPAN.

As you have stated, it is somewhere between NO and almost impossible…Just based on your question there is no sincerity to add something positive to the Philippines, which what Immigration looks for in a work visa…The Philippines, already has enough people who take away only and not give anything back and working in a tattoo salon, is not reputable and there is not a huge need for so called tattoo artists….However, my logic means nothing, you will need to apply for all of this directly though immigration…You can do so in person, in the main office in Manila…They will give you a 29 day free visa, and then charge you for another extension, of usually 60 day, then a maximum of every 6 months, for around 7K each, and you can do this for about 3 years, however, personally, I prefer you get a job in India

thank you. its helpfull

what if i marry a phillipino ?? will it help me to take citizenship in phillipines??

That makes me sick. You see what I mean…You are willing to marry a girl, just for citizenship which is illegal..You have to do this on your own and stop bother Fehl Google the Philippines Immigration web page and follow direction, this is not what this article is about…Sorry Miss Fehl, but this guy does not belong here, this is not what your blog is about here

Hi.. i decided to work in phillipines. im an indian and i just want to enter in phillipines and work in tattoo studio..i want to work t in phillipines for long period of time and i am ready to take citizenship

. can it possible??

you have to live in the philippines for 10yrs before you can get the citizenship. 10yrs without going out. or marry a filipina then live for 5yrs. you will be citizen

PASSPORT is a legal federal ID which allows you to leave your country

VISA: Is a document granting you permission to enter the country who granted the Visa

A US visa, is only good to enter the USA, for a specific amount of time and nothing more

Your Philippines passport only allows you leave the country of the Philippines, and is a federal ID

Now,check Miss Fehl’s list of countries which allow you to enter, without a visa….A visa, for the country you wish to enter, not the USA 🙁 HELP

For Filipino passport holders with valid US visa, what countries are we allowed to enter without applying for a visa?

Where did you get the visa?

Hi can I ask here how about indian citizens what she need if she want to go Philippines next month she wants to visit me in Philippines…. for 7 days only I hope you can help me thanks

Well, for me, entering the Philippines, I was give:

#1. Free 29 day visa…Up date it early, don’t be late, or they will fine you beyond recognition, and or deport you, after holding you, or him, or her at the BIWF

#2. Second visa, can be 30 days, 60 days, or maximum of 6 months…Usually, it is based on the reason why you need it longer…For me, it was 60 days

#3. More than likely, if you have even a reasonable reason, it will be six month and more than likely, be charged and ARC-1 card if you show you will be there longer…It is not a card to work, or go to school, it is a federal ID and in most cases, can be used, for just about anything, and you can secure your passport at hotel

#4. The longest you can stay is around 3 years, less one day…All you have to do is leave the country, for any amount of time, return and it all starts over

Costs range, from 5K to 8K depending on how long the visa is and if it has the ACR-1 card

I wish Filipinos have the same privilege, it is unfair

It is very unfair how I have seen. I invited a Filipina to the US for safety school, but the consul rejected the application in under 2 minutes? Has anyone been able to obtain a visa? If so, please help?

I agree, because I prefer more Filipinos, such as yourself, in the USA than other races but the problem is, very few Filipinos go back home, once the visa is over and that is not a figure of speech, it is very few…There is this misconception that you can get rich here and if that was true, men from the USA would not be retiring in Costa Rica and the Philippines…I not miss and love the Philippines, because my wife, kids, and house, with my new life, is there, but I chose to go there because it is less to live in a fixed income…The Filipinos who come here and allowed to come here are educated, in real estate, and law abiding….Those who come here, not as lucky fall into crime, prostitution, bar dancing, and or work many jobs, because, sure you earn let’s say for fun, 120K a month it costs you 125K to live here…Until people in the Philippines and most of Asia, stop believing it is easy to make it here, and become more educated, smart people like you will be judged wrongly, because of the other 98%…There is also a lot of unfairness for foreigners in the Philippines, because they allow drug lords back in who were once black listed but if you want to get married and whatever, you are prevented from going…It is not as easy as you think…To get in and stay in is all about money and corruption, the USA has a lot less corruption so it is harder

Ma’am I am a domestic helper here in HK my American bf send me an invitation here in HK to visit in Washington state for tourist even 2 weeks is there a possibility that I can go there?

I just want to confirm if we are visa free in vatican city because i tried to check it online its stated that no visa requirement for philippine passport holder in vatican city.. Could you pls. enlightened me about this inquiry because on the list vatican city is not included and as far as my knowledge is concern vatican city is a separate state. Thank yous so much and God bless hope to hear from u soon.

When you checked on Wikipedia it is noted as visa not required but the link says otherwise

If you hqve schengen visa, then you can visit vatican w

Hi, I have visited the Vatican. Vatican has no airport therefore no port of entry and no immigration officer to stamp your passport and give you free entry visa. There are no hotels inside the city therefore you have to leave the state the same day and have to sleep in Italy. If you want to sleep in Philippine territory because you have no visa to go to Italy or an EU country try the RP embassy. You will need a valid passport to enter. If you do not have a passport try the various passwords. If you use the correct password that day, they will let you in. You can not book a room online. They are not listed at hotels.com or airbnb.com. You can enter the Vatican from Italy, specifically from Rome city. No need for passport or visa from there. You only need to show a valid entry ticket that you can buy online for 28.50 euros. When you leave the state of Vatican, you return to Italy. Again that is specifically in Rome. No need for valid visa or passport. Just exit the gate. Vatican is also a landlocked state. It is not accessible by boat therefore you will not find any seaport in the whole state. It is accessible by train, bike, taxi or rental car from Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria and a few other EU countries. The nearest airport the Fiumicino International. If you are not coming from another EU country you will need schengen visa before you board a plane to bring you there.

hi im mary grace soriano 25 years old im looking for a stable job hopefully in singapore i have 6months experience as a cashier in a supermarket and not at least 6months experience as a service staff

@ Mary Grace….Please do not get mad, but what you did here, was very dangerous…You need to find friends, who work for an employment agency, who it licensed and approved by your department of state, and even then, this does not mean you are safe…If you work over seas, stay out of the middle east, and Singapore is a good choose, but they are real Asians, which means, work work work, more than in the Filipinas…I will tell you more, privately but this was not a good move, on your part, it is called direct hire and is dangerous…You need to be signed up for the approved agency first..God bless and be careful, and do not do this, here, or any social media

yes…confirmed that no need visa to travel HK…But how about Korea..still need apply for visa?

All Filipinos still need visa to visit South Korea

Yes it would be nice for Filipinos to be able to travel to many more countries without visas. Unfortunately many Filipinos have a very bad reputation in other countries for visa overstay, illegal working, and prostitution. Feel sorry for the many upstanding citizens who are all tarnished by and looked down upon because of this behaviour.

This is not good or bad, but it is factual, for now

SORRY FOR THE MISS UNDERSTANDING IT IS NOT VISA FREE, JUST FREE FEE AND LESS HASSLES, BUT STILL NOTE BELOW:

There seems to be a movement to drop the visa requirements, but due to the large amount of people staying in the USA, and not returning, to their home country, a visa is required, as a means of seeking the people here, if they over stay…The same as I did, every 60 days in the Philippines

I checked with my wife and she qualifies, but the steps need to be taken, to obtain it and yes, there is a modest fee…It’s not that big of a deal…but it is all over the news that visas to enter the US for Filipino, is not required: That is not true, and I am ashamed of that, but the process is just more streamlined once you are interviewed…Just follow the game and get your visa

Here is a press release from your embassy, meaning Philippines, who I believe more, than social media

PRESS RELEASE WDC-024-2014 22 APRIL 2014

The Embassy of the Republic of the Philippines would like to inform the public that there is no truth to what appears to be an online news report that the United States has announced a ‘no visa’ policy for Filipinos. The Embassy has been in touch with the US Department of State, which has denied making such an announcement. The Embassy reminds the public that the online article being circulated in social media is a satirical piece that should not be taken seriously.

One needs to understand, a great deal of work and cost goes into processing a visa, for someone, so there is a share of cost, meaning the taxpayers pay for the overhead, you pay for the extra costs inured to the State, for travel here

My does qualify, because of the financial prof and she has kids and family in the Philippines, as human security for her return there…I know that sounds bad, but people who go the Philippines, have income, people who come here, usually do not, and seek employment illegally, so income and family stability is important, so please understand

My sad apologies for my mistake and my government

Yes, there is no visa-free for Filipinos who want to visit USA. I just hope they would be more considerate with single people like me. It’s not like I won’t be coming back home LOL I just want to see New York, LA, Miami and more. 🙂

Yes, you are correct and I am wrong times two…It was a very bad joke (LIE frankly) started in the Philippines, on a many social websites and it went viral and I fell for it…I did deep research through our State Department, and there is talk, about visa changes, but here, in the USA, talk is cheap…One thing I can tell you is, there will never, ever be visa free, because no one goes home,,,They also seem to still charge a huge fee, for the visa, regardless of time stayed, and even though the questions are less rude and SEEM to be less unfair, the chances of getting a visa, even to visit, and spend money here, you will be refused and the fees are kept…I would love to pick you up at the airport, and tour you around…I am close to Disneyland and other places of interest, so this sticks for me also..I am super sorry normal people like you cannot come here, for a visit

How about taiwan???..they didn’t mention it so it means we need visa in Taiwan??am I right???

Hi… I’m just confused cause some sites say that I Filipinos need to apply for a visa to have an opportunity to tour in Thailand and then I read about this information of yours.. Can u pls tell me about what really is the truth about “going to Thailand requirements”? Thank you.

You forgot to include Myanmar on your list.

Can I travel to Chile if I have a valid us visa in my passport?

Hi. Can anybody here help me? I already had a passport. But it’s for work abroad. And then, now I wanted to travel abroad. Can I used it as a tourist passport? Or should I get another one? If the DFA allow it.

I have mailed the website for Azerbaijan visa and they confirmed that filipinos are required for visa application before arriving to their country. I advise everyone to do further research and email or call the embassy or consulate of the country you are interested for visiting in.

Is Dubai Visa free for Filipino epassport holder?just want to go for sightseeing thanks.

You need a visa to go there

For Filipino passport holders with valid US visa, are we allowed to enter Mexico without applying for Mexico visa?

I have boyfriend in turkey and he like to bring me there..if I go turkey I need visa or no..?

Hi.. My husband invite me to travel in Brazil this July for our second homey moon, Is their any papers I need to prepare for travel, or any Visa? Should I take something in emigration? thank you

Filipinos can go to Brazil without a visa prior to travel. You need to show your passport, valid ID, return tickets, hotel accommodation and money

Philippines Grants Visa-Free Privilege to 7 More Countries

These countries are Belize, Croatia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.

how much it cost for applying visa on India

“Fair Privilege” A person’s point of view from 3rd world country There are obviously high number of 3rd world people making issues in 1st world countries. There is a strict visa policy to be fair with those people LIKE YOU who only travels and stays in the country legally. Thats what you call FAIR because at least we do not ban all of you. Hope someday Filipinos can travel as many visa-free countries as we can. It is hard to travel with filipino gf. Have a good day

INDIA does not (or no longer) issues ‘tourist visa on arrival’ for Filipinos. They still call it that though. Its very misleading. You need to pay and apply online which will take 72 hrs to process.

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up. 🙂

List: 66 visa-free countries philippine passport holders can visit.

The Good News Pilipinas Team

Here is the list of 66 countries that Philippine passport holders can visit Visa-free as released by the annual Henley Passport Index.

The updated global passport index ranks the Philippines at 78th spot among 199 different passports’ visa-free access to 227 travel destinations worldwide.

The 2022 Henley Passport Index released prior to the general elections in April lists the Philippines with 66 countries that passport holders can access without a prior visa, in the same rank as the Cape Verde Islands.

Here are the 66 countries that Philippine passport holders can visit this year with no prior visa needed:

philippine passport travel visa free

The Philippines plunged to its all-time lowest rank at 83rd in 2021 since the country debuted on the index at 63rd spot in 2006, and peaked at 62nd spot from 2007-2009. The Philippines was in 74th rank in 2020 , 77th in 2019, 75th rank in 2018 , and 75th rank in 2017 .

The ranking is based on an exclusive and official database of travel information from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) enhanced by extensive, ongoing research by the Henley & Partners Research Department.

The countries are ranked according to the following formula:

If no visa is required, then a score with value = 1 is created for that passport. The same applies if you can obtain a visa on arrival, a visitor’s permit, or an electronic travel authority (ETA) when entering the destination.

Where a visa is required, or where a passport holder has to obtain a government-approved electronic visa (e-Visa) before departure, a score with value = 0 is assigned. This also applies if you need pre-departure government approval for a visa on arrival.

The total score for each passport is equal to the number of destinations for which no visa is required (value = 1).

With a passport in hand boasting a score of 194, Italian citizens can travel across most countries with ease. From the ancient wonders of Peru to the bustling streets of Singapore, the possibilities for exploration are endless.

Renowned for its efficiency and hospitality, Japan extends its warmth to its passport holders by granting them access to 194 countries visa-free. Whether it's soaking in the serene ambiance of Finland or exploring the architectural marvels of Belgium, Japanese travellers are welcomed with open arms.

As a global hub of commerce and culture, Singapore's passport holders enjoy the privilege of visa-free access to 194 destinations worldwide.

Rounding out the elite group with a score of 194, Spain offers its citizens the freedom to explore the world without the hindrance of visas.
