Wiki:

The Philippines has a radio service for use of families and small businesses. This service is called SRRS or Short Range Radio Service. Repeaters are not permitted, and units are limited to 2.5 watts.

This service has been allocated 40 channels at 325 MHz.

Me: found that. Also found an official memo. To operate radios on these frequencies, you need a permit. You get the permit when you buy the radios at an accredited dealer.

I would not send 2way radios from the us. Best to send the money for a set, or grab a set at the mall, or wherever you can find a dealer on your next trip.

Side note: edit:(sometimes) radio detonators are used by mining companies, and demolition teams. The frequencies set to these devices varies by country. There are times the frequencies set by one country for personal radios are used by another country for emergency services. (US spec FRS is illegal in EU for this reason.)
