What is the telephone number of Philippine Embassy in Manila?

The Philippines does not have an embassy in Manila because Manila is part of the Philippines and embassies represent a nation in foreign countries. Every country that has diplomatic relations with the Philippines will have its own embassy in Manila. The citizens of that country might refer to their embassy as the Philippine Embassy if they are talking to their own government or in their own country, but usually they would talk about their Embassy in the Philippines. So you must specify a country before the phone number of that country's embassy in the Philippines can be provided. For example: +63 2 301 2000 is the telephone number of the US embassy in Manila. It is located at 1201 Roxas Blvd, Manila 1000, Philippines.
