Do Indonesia passport holders need a visa to visit Philippines?

Q: Do I need a return ticket?

Yes. A confirmed return or onward ticket is required and is commonly checked by airlines and immigration.

Q: How much does it cost?

Nothing for the visa itself — entry is free. You only pay fees if you choose to extend your stay beyond 30 days.

Q: Can I extend my 30-day stay?

Yes. Apply for a visa-waiver extension at a Bureau of Immigration office before your authorized stay expires; extensions are granted in increments up to a 2-year maximum.

Q: What passport validity do I need?

Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your intended period of stay.

Indonesian ordinary passport holders can visit the Philippines visa-free for up to 30 days as ASEAN nationals. As an ASEAN member state national, an Indonesian ordinary passport holder may enter the Philippines without a visa for tourism for an initial stay of up to 30 days under Philippine Executive Order 408 and ASEAN reciprocity. No prior application, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival is needed. At immigration you must present a passport valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay and a confirmed return or onward ticket. The 30-day stay can be extended in the Philippines through the Bureau of Immigration (up to two months per extension) if you need longer. This verdict was verified on 2026-05-30 against the official Philippine e-Visa policy portal and the DFA/Bureau of Immigration visa-free list; note that recent 2026 tightening affected Chinese and certain other nationals but did NOT change the 30-day visa-free treatment for ASEAN nationals including Indonesians.
