Our story

We're Filipinas who decided a Philippine passport wasn't going to stop us from seeing the world.

Regular working Filipinas. We dreamed of travelling farther than we thought we could. But travelling on a Philippine passport comes with an extra step that many travellers never have to think about.

Visas.

They're confusing. They're expensive. They take time. And even after spending thousands of pesos, approval is never guaranteed.

We couldn't afford to hand every application to an agency. So we learned to do them ourselves — reading forum threads at midnight, second-guessing bank certificates, printing itineraries for trips we weren't sure we'd get to take.

And somewhere between application forms, bank certificates and nervous waits for passports to come back, we realised: it is possible.

That's why we created Stamped.PH. To make visa applications a little less overwhelming, and big travel dreams feel a little more possible.

You dream about where you're going. We'll help you figure out the paperwork.

How we work

Where our information comes from

Every destination page links to the official government or embassy source it's based on.
Every page carries the date we last checked it against that source.
We write from our own applications and from official guidance — never from forum threads.
We're not a law firm, an agency, or immigration advisers, and we don't promise approvals.
