🇲🇲 Does a Burmese need a visa for the Philippines 🇵🇭?

Visa-free · up to 30 days

No. Burmese passport holders can visit the Philippines without a visa for up to 30 days.

Checked against Wikipedia's list of visa requirements for Burmese citizens on 2026-10-04. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of the Philippines or its official government website before you travel.

What this means for your trip

Visa-free entry lets you arrive with a valid passport and pass border control without applying in advance.

Border officers can still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay, and they decide on entry. The stay limit applies per visit; many countries also cap total days within a period.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Plugs and voltage

Some of your plugs fit (C); for type F, G plugs bring a travel adapter for the Philippines's sockets (A, B, C). Mains voltage differs (the Philippines: 220 V; Myanmar: 230 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
