📌 PH Expats Forum Rules & Guidelines

Welcome to PH Expats! This is a friendly, supportive place to ask questions, share experiences, and build real connections with others living in or moving to the Philippines.

Before posting, please take a moment to read the community rules below. These help keep the forum useful, safe, and respectful for everyone.
✅ Be Respectful

Treat others the way you’d want to be treated.

Debate is welcome, but personal attacks, name-calling, or hateful speech is not.

Remember that many users come from different cultures — give the benefit of the doubt.

✅ Stay On Topic

Post in the correct forum whenever possible.

Start a new topic instead of hijacking someone else’s thread with unrelated questions.

✅ No Spam or Self-Promotion

Don’t post ads, affiliate links, or promote your business/service without permission.

If you want to recommend something genuinely helpful, disclose any connection.

✅ Protect Privacy

Don’t post private info (your address, phone number, etc.) — yours or anyone else’s.

Screenshots are allowed, but blur names or faces unless you have permission.

✅ Use Clear Titles & Tags

Help others find your topic by using descriptive titles.

Add relevant tags to make your post easier to search.

❌ Not Allowed

Political or religious debates

Trolling, flame wars, or harassment

Misinformation about visas, healthcare, or legal matters (unless clearly cited)

🔒 Moderation Policy

Posts may be edited or removed at the discretion of moderators. Repeat violations may result in warnings or a ban. If you see something inappropriate, flag it and our team will review it.

Thanks for helping us keep PH Expats helpful and respectful.
Let’s build something awesome together!
