How long can I stay on a single Philippine tourist visa?

In recent years, the number of Chinese citizens traveling to the Philippines has increased year by year, and visa applications have gradually become easier. Some people are going to apply for a tourist visa before departure but they are entering the country. How long can a single tourist visa stay in the Philippines?

People who travel to the Philippines can obtain tourist visas in two ways. One is to prepare paper materials in advance in the country and apply for sticker visas, and the other is to apply for visas on arrival after arrival. The validity period and length of stay of tourist visas obtained by different processing methods are different.

The validity period of Philippine paper tourist visa is generally 90 days, but the length of stay is also different. Applicants can choose to stay for 30 days or 14 days. However, if you apply for a Philippine tourist visa through landing visa, the validity period and stay time of the visa will need to be approved according to the itinerary.

Filipino tourist visa holders can only enter the country once. If you still want to travel abroad, you need to apply again. Therefore, applicants must pay attention to the validity period and stay time of the visa, and return to the country in time before the expiration of the stay time or validity period, so as not to leave bad records and affect future visa applications.

If you think it is more troublesome to apply for a Philippine visa, you can also choose to travel with a group. The group tour can enjoy the visa-free policy of the Philippines, and you only need to follow a qualified hotel. However, group tours are also valid and stay for 30 days.

Chinese mainland citizens who hold valid visas for the United States, Japan, Australia, Canada or Schengen can also enter the Philippines visa-free if the purpose of entry is tourism, but they can only stay for 7 days, but they can be extended for up to 21 days.
