There are no government-mandated per diem rates in the Philippines.

Employers have flexibility in structuring per diem policies, which may include:

  • Fixed daily allowances reflecting expected travel costs
  • Reimbursement of actual expenses incurred, supported by receipts

For tax-related guidance, refer to the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR).
