The limit on how much cash you can bring into the Philippines in other currencies is the equivalent of USD10,000.

Glad I found that out now, I was going to bring over 32K PHP cash, what would be the best to use then?

I will take 10k PHP cash and should I just use my Visa Debit Card [Barclays], or get a travel cash card???

Would like to hear peoples experiences as I don't want to be worried about not having enough money whilst I am there.
