TheRepublic of the Philippines has a network ofdiplomatic missions in major cities around the world, under the purview of theDepartment of Foreign Affairs (DFA), to forward the country's interests in the areas that they serve, as well as to serve the ever-growing numbers ofOverseas Filipinos andOverseas Filipino Workers.

Although the Philippine diplomatic mission network is wide, there are embassies that are accredited to other nations without Philippine diplomatic posts. The network as of February 2026 consists of 68 embassies, 30 consulates-general, 4 permanent missions to international organizations, and the Manila Economic and Cultural Office (MECO) in Taipei, and its 2 extension offices.

Excluded from this listing are honorary consulates, branches of theSentro Rizal, overseas offices of theDepartment of Tourism and theDepartment of Migrant Workers, and trade missions (with the exception of MECO, which serves as the country'sde facto embassy toTaiwan).

Although attempts at initial diplomatic relations were made during thePhilippine Revolution and the time of theFirst Philippine Republic, most nations established diplomatic relations with the Philippines only in the years after the country achieved independence from theUnited States in 1946.

The first documented instance of a Philippine diplomatic mission being established abroad was that of theembassy in Tokyo, which was opened by theSecond Philippine Republic, a puppet state of theEmpire of Japan, on March 24, 1944, withJorge B. Vargas as its first ambassador.^[1] However, the mission was summarily closed with Japan's defeat inWorld War II, and as it was never recognized by the pre-warCommonwealth of the Philippines,^[2] the oldest continually-operating Philippine diplomatic mission is that of theembassy in Washington, D.C., replacing the office of theResident Commissioner of the Philippines after the country achieved independence from the United States on July 4, 1946,^[2] and led byJoaquín Miguel Elizalde as its first ambassador.^[3] This was followed shortly thereafter with the establishment of the permanent mission to theUnited Nations.^[3]

A number of missions were opened in the first years after independence. In his 1947State of the Nation Address (SONA), PresidentManuel Roxas announced that missions in a number of other cities were also opened aside from the embassy in Washington, D.C.;^[4] these included the first consulates general inNew York City,San Francisco, andHonolulu, as well as consulates inXiamen andHong Kong.^[5] Additional missions were opened the following year, including the first missions in Europe (inLondon,Madrid andRome) and Latin America (inBuenos Aires).^[6] By 1952, the Philippine foreign service had grown to encompass missions in 11 countries,^[7] and by 1965 grew further to missions in 36 countries worldwide.^[8]

The Philippines' diplomatic presence grew significantly during the presidency ofFerdinand Marcos, spurred in part by the normalization of relations with theEastern Bloc in the early 1970s.^[9] Philippine diplomatic missions were present in 43 countries by 1978,^[10] with additional ones opening the following year, particularly in theMiddle East.^[11] By 1981, there were 63 countries worldwide hosting Philippine diplomatic missions.^[12] Several missions, however, would be closed at the tail end of the Marcos presidency and in the years thereafter as part of a series of cost reduction programs.

Another expansion of the country's diplomatic presence took place during the presidency ofGloria Macapagal Arroyo, with 67 countries hosting Philippine diplomatic missions by the end of her presidency. This, however, was not without controversy: in 2010 SenatorFranklin Drilon questioned the need for embassies in countries with small Filipino communities, calling for a review of the Philippines' diplomatic presence worldwide.^[13] Arroyo's successor,Benigno Aquino III, then announced two years later the closure of ten posts (seven embassies and three consulates general):Caracas,Venezuela;Koror,Palau;Dublin,Ireland;Stockholm,Sweden;Bucharest,Romania;Havana,Cuba;Helsinki,Finland;Barcelona,Spain;Frankfurt,Germany andSaipan,Northern Mariana Islands.^[14] These closures have since been largely reversed under Aquino's successors,Rodrigo Duterte andBongbong Marcos, with the 2019 reopening of the consulate general in Frankfurt,^[15] the 2020 reopening of the consulate general in Barcelona,^[16] and shortly thereafter the reopening of the embassy in Sweden.^[17] In 2024, the embassies in Finland, Ireland and Romania reopened after funding was approved by Congress, alongside the future reopening of the embassy in Cuba.^[18] Even missions closed years earlier were reopened, such as the 2018 reopening of the consulate general in Houston 25 years after it was last closed.^[19]

Aquino's successors have generally returned to an expansion of the Philippines' diplomatic presence abroad, including the opening of new missions where they did not exist previously. Under Duterte, the Philippines opened its embassy inCopenhagen,Denmark on January 14, 2019, the first new embassy to open since 2012,^[20] while the first new consulate to open since 2012 opened inIstanbul,Turkey on January 2, 2020.^[21] Under Bongbong Marcos, the first new mission to open during his presidency was the embassy inBogotá,Colombia, which opened on October 7, 2024,^[22] while the first new consulate was opened inBusan,South Korea on January 26, 2026.^[23]

Other missions likely to be opened include new embassies in Ethiopia,^[24] Fiji,^[25][26] Ghana,^[26] Kazakhstan,^[26][24] Panama,^[27] and Ukraine,^[28] as well as the reopening of embassies in Palau and Peru.^[24][29]
