Why this verdict
Filipino citizens' entry guidance is based on Angola's official tourism-visa exemption framework for short tourism visits: up to 30 days per entry and up to 90 days per year. The Philippines row follows the 2025 Decreto Presidencial 193/25 amendment reproduced from Diario da Republica by Lex Angola, which adds the Philippines to the tourism-exemption annex. This guidance is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short tourism/visitor travel only. Work, study, residence, medical treatment, non-tourist visits, diplomatic/service passports, airline checks, vaccination/health checks, overstay handling, border discretion and live SME portal eligibility can change the practical answer. Reconfirm with Angola SME, an Angolan mission or the official government source before booking.
Conditional rules

Angola's official government notice says the exemption regime applies exclusively to tourism visas; other purposes must use the corresponding diplomatic mission or consular visa route.
- Passport validity is six months or less Visa required

- International vaccination certificate required for the itinerary Conditional
