- You can stay up to 36 months with proper extensions (yep, 3 years).
- Just visit any Bureau of Immigration—Makati branch is a favorite if you beat the morning rush.
- Extensions usually come in 29-day or 59-day chunks.
- Expect to pay anywhere from ₱3,000 to ₱7,000 per extension depending on how long you've been here.
