Extending your Visa:
When you arrive in the Philippines, you will be given a 21 day tourist visa. After this 21 day period you can get an extension of 38 days, this then takes your stay up to 59 days. From this point you can extend your visa for 59 day periods (two months), allowing you to stay in the Philippines for one year. At this point you must leave the Country for at least one day, on your return the whole process can start all over again.
