Philippines Visa Requirements

🇧🇩 For a Bangladesh passport

With a Bangladesh passport, Philippines requires an electronic visa or travel authorisation before you fly — you can't just show up and get one at the border. The good news is this is usually a quick online process rather than an embassy visit.

You're allowed to stay for 30 days (per stay, not extendable). Processing typically takes Not specified by official source (previous sticker visa took 7-15 working days).

The official fee is BDT 8,580 (single-entry); BDT 13,860 (multi-entry, 6 months); BDT 19,140 (multi-entry, 1 year).

One more thing worth knowing: The Philippines launched its e-Visa system for Bangladeshi nationals on 8 June 2026, replacing sticker visas for tourism/temporary visits; e-Visa cannot be converted to other visa categories, fees are paid at the embassy, and the e-Travel registration form must be completed within 72 hours before departure..

This falls under our Southeast Asia guides.

Frequently asked questions

How far in advance should I apply for my Philippines e-visa?

Apply as early as you can once your travel dates are set. Processing times can vary, especially around holidays or peak travel seasons, so leaving it until the last few days before your flight is risky — an e-visa that's still pending when you're due to board can mean being denied boarding.

What happens if my Philippines e-visa application is rejected?

Rejections do happen, and the reason isn't always given in detail. If yours is rejected, check that every field matched your passport exactly, that your passport has enough remaining validity, and that any required photo or document met the stated format — then reapply or, if time is short, contact Philippines's official visa portal or nearest consulate directly rather than guessing.

Is the information on this page guaranteed to be accurate?

We check what we publish against official sources where we can, and clearly flag anything still pending verification. Even so, visa rules change — sometimes with very little notice — so please treat this page as a strong starting point, not a final word, and confirm directly with the official source linked above before you book or fly.

Budget for the entry fee (BDT 8,580 (single-entry); BDT 13,860 (multi-entry, 6 months); BDT 19,140 (multi-entry, 1 year)) and check whether it needs to be paid in a specific currency or method.
