Shouldn't be a problem unless your girlfriend has been married before.

I think you mean 'still married.' Adultery is against the law in Phil

Adultery is illegal in the Philippines, where it incurs a jail sentence of at least seven years.

A British man was hiding on a tropical island last night to avoid being jailed for adultery.

David Scott and his Filipina partner Cynthia Villamor are being hunted by authorities in her home country.

Police say Miss Villamor became pregnant with Mr Scott's child before she officially separated from her ex-husband.

I did! Thank you!
The problem is you will sometimes meet Filipino's that have been separated for a very long time. Most westerner's will presume they are divorced. Usually they are not.

Ist of all arthur,there needs to be a complaint made to the Police by the husband.
Secondly the complaint MUST be against both offending parties...
After that they can be held until the court case.. Bit Draconian perhaps but thats the law here.
