What are the rules for entering the Philippines with children?

When entering the Philippines with children, special rules apply, especially if the child is traveling without parents. The main requirements depend on the child's age and accompanying persons.

For children under 15 years old:

• When traveling with both parents, there are usually no problems
• If the child and parents have different surnames, it is recommended to have a birth certificate with you
• When traveling with one parent, it is better to have notarized consent from the other

Important rule: for children under 15 years old traveling without parents (with grandparents, guardians), a special Waiver of Exclusion Ground (WEG) permit is required.

Information on obtaining the WEG permit can be found on the official embassy website. We recommend checking all requirements in advance, as they may change.

Children, like adults, must have valid passports and are subject to the same visa requirements depending on citizenship.
