Do Hong Kong passport holders need a visa to visit Philippines?

No visa needed. Hong Kong SAR ordinary passport holders can enter the Philippines visa-free for tourism for up to 14 days under FSC 122-11, provided they hold a return or onward ticket and a passport valid at least 6 months. Holders of a Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) ordinary passport do not need a visa for short tourist visits to the Philippines. Under Foreign Service Circular (FSC) No. 122-11, HKSAR passport holders are admitted visa-free for an initial stay of 14 days, subject to standard conditions: a passport valid for at least six months beyond the date of arrival, proof of a confirmed return or onward ticket, and no adverse immigration record. The 14-day admission can be extended at a Bureau of Immigration (BI) office — typically by an additional 7 days first, then in monthly increments up to a maximum of about six months from entry, for a fee. Note: the Hong Kong Immigration Department's own reference list shows a longer figure for the Philippines, but the destination authority (the Philippine Bureau of Immigration / DFA eVisa portal) is controlling, and it specifies 14 days for HKSAR passports; travelers should plan around 14 days to be safe. This is a free, no-application-needed entry — there is no eVisa, ETA, or visa-on-arrival fee for a stay within 14 days. Overstaying triggers daily fines and possible blacklisting, so secure an extension before the 14th day if you need longer.
