Hi Neil,

Your introductory post provides me with a unique threefold opportunity to - first of all, welcome you to the forum, secondly, extend my best wishes to you and your bride-to-be on your forthcoming wedding; and thirdly, answer your question as to how much Filipino currency you can [legally] take with you to the Philippines, based on what Bank of Scotland/Halifax told ME.

According to their Foreign Exchange staff, the maximum amount that can be brought into the country is 10,000 pesos. Don't ask me why, but apparently there are tight restrictions in place vis-a-vis the Phils monetary system, and so it would be advisable not to take any unnecessary risks.

Enjoy!
