Counts are for a standard tourist passport, from our open visa-matrix dataset, which cross-checks Wikipedia against a second source and records every disagreement rather than picking one silently. This is a starting point, not legal advice — a rule can change between snapshots, so confirm the current requirement with the destination's official source before you book. Rows marked ⚑ disputed are corridors where our two sources disagree; treat those as "verify first".

People also ask
How many countries can Filipino citizens visit visa-free?
34 destinations, with no form and no fee — you arrive and the passport is stamped at the border. Add the 25 that issue a visa on arrival and the 3 that need only an eTA registered online, and 62 of 198 destinations need no visa arranged before you fly. As of 20 July 2026.
How strong is the Filipino passport?
It ranks 137 of 199 passports by no-prior-visa access, reaching 62 of 198 destinations without arranging a visa first. That figure counts visa-free and freedom-of-movement entry plus eTA and visa on arrival. As of 20 July 2026.
Which countries require a visa for Filipino citizens?
88 destinations need a consular visa applied for before travel, and 48 more need an e-visa approved online first. Both groups are listed in full above. The dataset records the requirement itself, not the fee or the processing time — confirm those with the destination's own authority. As of 20 July 2026.
What is the difference between an eTA and an e-visa for Filipino citizens?
An eTA is a registration; an e-visa is an application. A Filipino passport needs an eTA for 3 destinations — minutes online, then you fly — and a full e-visa for 48, which must be approved before departure. Neither one is issued at the border, so both have to be done before you travel.
How current is this visa-free list for Filipino citizens?
It is a dated snapshot, checked 20 July 2026, built by cross-checking two sources and recording every disagreement rather than picking one silently. None of this passport's 198 corridors are currently disputed. Entry rules change between snapshots, so confirm with the destination's official source before booking.
