This data is updated as of February 2012. Visa requirements may change in the future so it is advisable to double check also before making your travel arrangements. You would also need to check whether a transit visa will be needed if you will travel through countries that require visas for Philippine passport holders. For those territories where you can get your visa upon arrival, make sure to check the required documents prior to arranging the trip. You may check through the Visa Requirement widget on the sidebar of PauTravels.

Wish there is no need for visa at all. Our ancestors did not even need any document to travel.
yeah... I agree... I hope here there were no borders at all.. politically and socially :)
this is very informative..Glad you posted it..
nice! definitely this list is helpful!
I check Montenegro and from your list, stated that I don't need VISA if I'm Philippines passport holders but they were asking me a VISA to get here.
oh really?.. I guess they may have changed their requirements or something.
anyways, the info I have on this post is basically based on the results returned to me by VisaHQ and they may have not updated their database yet.
Nice post and article, very interesting. Thanks for share, keep update
This is nice to know. Thanks.
Great Blog..!!!! Keep Blogging.... :)
Pau,
A Philippine passport holder needs a visa to enter Mexico.
@Anonymous.. thanks for updating me.. it seems that they mexico may have changed their policy because last year, at least at the time of writing this, we still did not need visa for mexico...
pau,
i guess that mexico required a visa after pacquiao gave a hell of a beating among the mexican boxers.. haha.
kidding aside, almost of all of these countries in which we dont need visa at all are the ones with the highest airfare rates. especially polynesia.
kudos
Great blog! Very informative!
unfortunately not so excited now, knowing that We have to
Apply visa to enter Mexico!!! I love to travel, but I hate thinking of filling up those forms and the Q to the consulate office!
Hope no more boundaries, So we can travel freely like a bird!

To my readers, I have just made an update to the list as it appeared that some of the countries I've listed before no longer are visa free for Filipinos... plus there are some other countries that are visa free now.
I've updated this based on VisaHQ site plus from a posted article by the DFA recently.
Again if there are changes feel free to notify me so I can update!
