Do I have to pay a fee to apply for a Philippine visa?

In addition to the visa-free policy implemented by the other country, as long as you apply for a visa, you have to pay a visa fee, because the time and energy wasted by the embassy in the process of accepting the visa is to serve the applicant, so the applicant must pay the fee, and the same is true for applying for a Philippine visa.

At present, the Philippines does not implement any visa-free policy, so when applying for a visa, applicants need to pay enough fees stipulated by the embassy and submit the materials together. Both are indispensable.

The fee stipulated by the Philippine Embassy is generally about 600 for a single visa and about 2000 for multiple visas. Therefore, there are more people applying for a single visa, and there is no great economic pressure for most applicants. This may be one of the reasons why there are more tourists entering the Philippines.

If you apply for an urgent application during the application period, you still have to pay an urgent fee, which is generally around 300. Although the fee is not as high as the normal handling fee, the combined fee will reach nearly 1000, which will be relatively high. Moreover, you may not be able to sign out in advance after the urgent application. Therefore, it is recommended that applicants do not apply for an urgent application, but apply normally.

However, the Philippines has implemented a visa-free policy for some people in our country, that is to say, they can enter the country without applying for a visa, so they do not need to pay any visa fees. These people can enter the country without a visa for 30 days if they participate in a tour organized by a tour group officially recognized by the other party.

In short, in addition to those who meet the visa-free conditions, visa applicants must pay the visa fee to the embassy before they can obtain a visa and enter the country to do their own thing, otherwise they will not be able to successfully submit the application and will delay everyone's trip.
