What Do I Need To Have To Travel To Philippines? Ie: Shots, Passport, Visa, Airline Tickets ….whatever?



As a tourist, you will be automatically given 21 days stay in the Philippines upon your arrival. Beyond 21 days you have to secure a visa in the Immigration Bureau.http://www.immigration.gov.phhttp://www.dfa.gov.ph
You should make sure your passport is still valid for the next 6 months. Check your passport expiration. If not, you have to renew it before coming to the Philippines.
By Philippine law, you are required to show a return or outward ticket to the Immigration officer upon your arrival. However this is not commonly practiced. But still, prepare your ticket, just in case.
Hepatitis is a big problem in the Philippines. 1 out of 7 Filipinos have Hepatitis and some does not even know it. Get your Hepatitis vaccination if you plan to eat local food or fool around in the red district.
When changing currency, avoid if possible street money changers. They might give you good exchange rates but some are just plain unscrupulous (you do not know if the currency they are giving you are genuine or fake). Change currencies in banks, malls or shopping centers. Some travelers no longer recommend Travelers Check. ATM’s and credit cards are more highly recommended. Though becareful of bank charges. Visa, Mastercard is widely used in the Philippines.
