EU driver's license valid in the Philippines

Question

I'm from Belgium and I have a Belgian drivers license (for just over 1 year).

In December I will be going to the Philippines. Do I need an international driver's license or can I use my Belgian one?

Answer 1

LTO is the government body in Philippines responsible for licensing drivers and registering vehicles. See the official LTO FAQ:

2. I have a valid foreign driver’s license. Can I use it in the Philippines?

Yes, 90 days from date of arrival.

3. Can I convert my foreign driver’s license into Philippine driver’s license?

Yes. If valid, no exams. If expired subject to written / practical exams. Click the link for more information. (Non-Professional Driver's License, Professional Driver's License)

This is also not an easy country to drive, due to poor road quality and huge traffic jams in big cities.
