If your UK State Pension is your only income, then it isn't taxable. However, if you have other income from whatever source, your pension will be added to that income and you will be taxed in the normal way if you are classed as a UK resident for tax purposes.

How do you have UK pension paid in Philippines?

If it is a private pension, you should consider transferring it to a QROPS (Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pensions Scheme) A QROPS has many benefits and income drawn is free from UK Tax. If it is a state pension, it would probably be best to have it transferred to a UK bank account and then transferred to the Phillipines once every 3-4 months to minimize bank charges

What taxes do you have to pay on pension income?

Income taxes, generally. Some states exempt some pensions from income tax. If you are in the UK and are only receiving the State Pension as your income in retirement it is unlikely you would pay an taxes as the amount paid will be below your yearly tax allowance. If you add to the State Pension an allowance from monies saved in a company or a private pensions savings scheme then it is likely you will exceed your yearly tax allowance coupled with this the Government in order to encourage you to save in a pension scheme offers tax relief to scheme at the time the money is invested, so once it is then converted back into income like a wage or salary prior to retirement it then becomes liable to the equivalent of income tax. Like most matters relating to income tax it is very personal to the situation that you find yourself in, so if you need more in-depth information I would talk to your local tax office or a financial advisor qualified in tax related matters.
