Know Before You Go
- The Philippines has a warm, humid climate year-round, so light and breathable clothing is ideal; however, modest attire is recommended for churches, rural areas, and religious events.
- English is widely spoken throughout the country, making communication easy for travelers, though polite language and respectful behavior are highly valued.
- A valid passport must be carried at all times; while a photocopy or digital copy is acceptable for daily movement, the original may be required for official checks.
- Passports must be valid for at least six months beyond the date of entry, and proof of onwards or return travel may be requested at immigration.
- Hotel check-ins, domestic flights, ferries, casinos, and certain tours require a government-issued photo ID or passport for verification.
- Random ID checks may occur at airports, ferry terminals, and during local events or heightened security periods.
- Cash is widely used, especially outside major cities; travelers should carry small denominations as card payments are not always accepted.
- The local currency is the Philippine Peso (PHP), and money should only be exchanged at authorized banks or licensed exchange counters.
- Traffic congestion is common in major cities like Metro Manila, so travel times can be unpredictable and buffer time should always be allowed.
- Island travel often depends on ferries or small aircraft, which may be delayed due to weather conditions; flexible itineraries are strongly recommended.
- The rainy season generally runs from June to November, with sudden weather changes possible—travel insurance is advisable.
- Tap water is not considered safe for drinking; bottled or filtered water should be used, including in some areas for brushing teeth.
- Tipping is not mandatory, but small tips are appreciated for good service in hotels, restaurants, and guided tours.
- Respect for elders, politeness, and maintaining a calm demeanor are important cultural values; public confrontation or raised voices are discouraged.
- When visiting local homes, removing footwear may be customary, and respectful behavior toward hosts is expected.
- Permission should always be requested before photographing people, especially in rural communities or during religious ceremonies.
- Environmental regulations are strictly enforced in many destinations, including bans on single-use plastics—reusable bottles and bags are encouraged.
- Smoking is prohibited in many public areas and is allowed only in designated smoking zones.
- Mobile connectivity is strong in cities but limited in remote islands; downloading maps and essential documents offline is helpful.
- Public transport such as jeepneys, tricycles, and taxis is common; if meters are not used, fares should be agreed upon in advance.
- Power sockets vary (Types A, B, and C) with a standard voltage of 220V, so carrying a universal adapter is recommended.
- Safety is generally good in tourist areas, but travelers should stay alert in crowded places and keep valuables secure.
- Losing a passport must be reported immediately to the local police and the traveler’s embassy or consulate to obtain replacement documents.
- Filipinos are known for their hospitality and willingness to help; responding with patience, gratitude, and courtesy enhances the overall travel experience.
- For leisure days or free time, download ride-hailing apps like Grab for safe, metered city travel (avoid unmetered taxis); get an eSIM or local SIM at airports for data, as coverage may drop in remote areas.
- Typhoons are common between June and November; guests are advised to monitor official local weather updates (such as the PAGASA app) and ensure they have adequate personal travel insurance covering delays or evacuations.
