157 countries can enter the Philippines without a visa, so you most likely won't need a visa. Additionally, if you are a Filipino living outside the Philippines and is a citizen of a different country, you will also not require a visa. Unfortunately, if you don't fit into those two categories above, you can't enter the Philippines without a visa, unless you are just transisting through an airport in the Philippines to a third country.
