Verified Oct 7, 2026 · Source: evisa.gov.ph (opens in a new tab)How to apply
No visa application is needed for a short visit.
Yellow fever certificate
Arriving from Turkey, no yellow fever certificate is required: WHO does not list Turkey as a transmission risk. It can still be demanded if you have been in a risk country shortly before arriving.
Driving on a Turkey license
Philippines and Turkey are both party to the 1949 Geneva Convention & 1968 Vienna Convention, so an International Driving Permit issued in Turkey is one Philippines is bound to recognize.
Whether a permit is required alongside your national license is set by national road law, which we have not checked for this pair.
