Holiday Visa do I need one?
Hello again, well I am planning my holiday to Cagayan de oro city in June, and noted this business about visas, so my question is as a UK citizen do i need to apply for a visa before I holiday there or do I just turn up and get a 2 week visitors visa or something like that?
many thanks John"Nothing ventured, nothing gained"

When you leave the Phil's make sure you've got at least 750 Peso's on you at the airport for your Terminal Fee and exit tax or whatever they call it to justify it

6. Can a person bring in or take out of the country any amount of Philippine
currency?
A person may, without prior BSP approval, import or export, or bring in or take out
of the country, or electronically transfer, legal tender Philippine notes and coins,
checks, money orders or other bills of exchange drawn in pesos against banks
operating in the Philippines in amounts not exceeding P10,000.00. Prior
authorization from the BSP, through the International Operations Department, is
required for the export and import of Philippine currency exceeding P10,000.00.
7. Is there any restriction or limit in the amount of foreign currency that a
person may bring in or take out of the Philippines?
There is no restriction or limit on the amount of foreign currency that a person may
bring in or take out of the Philippines. However, any person bringing in or
taking out of the Philippines foreign currency, as well as other foreign
exchange-denominated bearer monetary instruments, (whereby title thereto
passes to another by endorsement, assignment or delivery), in excess of
US$10,000.00 or its equivalent must declare such fact in writing and furnish
information on the source and purpose of the transport of such currency or
monetary instruments using the prescribed Foreign Currency and Other
Foreign Exchange-Denominated Bearer Monetary Instruments Declaration Form.
The form is available at the Bureau of Customs desk in the arrival/departure areas of
all international airports and seaports. Failure to do so shall subject the violator to
sanctions, including confiscation of the foreign currency or monetary instruments
involved.

Declaring cash when entering or leaving the UK
If you are arriving in the UK from a country outside the European Union (EU), or you're leaving the UK to travel directly to a country outside the EU, you must declare any cash of 10,000 euros or more (or its equivalent in other currencies) to customs officers.
I don;t know about others, but the chances of me carrying in excess of 10,000 Euros on my person is a billion to one....what sort of holidays do you think I have
