Common Questions
Yes, especially for remote work. Serviced apartments in Makati and BGC offer weekly and monthly rates. Day trips to Tagaytay, Batangas beaches and Pampanga are possible.
Rail uses the Beep stored-value card rather than a monthly pass. Ride-hailing and taxis fill the gaps.
Many visitors can enter visa-free for 30 days and extend locally. The exact rules depend on the passport, so check before travelling.
