Choose the passport you will travel with to see the visa route and its conditions.

Foreign tourists generally complete free eTravel arrival registration within 72 hours of arrival and save the QR code. Use the government portal. Registration does not replace a visa or guarantee admission.

DFA visa-free tourist rules require a return or onward ticket. Nationality-specific tourist concessions also specify it; special resident or Balikbayan arrangements need separate checks.

Travel insurance isn't required for foreign tourists, but it's recommended.

These conditions are for a regular tourist visit. Where you live, your visa status and the route you take can change what applies to you.
