Citizens of most countries are required to have a valid visa to enter the Philippines. The Filipino Consulate General determines the duration of the visa upon receiving an application.

1. Business: The Filipino business visa is designed to allow business travelers to come to the Philippines in order to pursue business activities, such as attending meetings and conferences.  However, it excludes holders from seeking employment in the Philippines.
2. Tourist:  The tourist visa (also known as the ‘visitor visa’ or ‘visit visa’) allows the holder entry to the Philippines, but strictly forbids travelers from engaging in any work while they are in the Philippines.  Filipino tourist visa holders are also not allowed to extend their stay beyond the limits of the visa.
