The Republic of the Philippines (the "Republic") is offering 650,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 0.250% bonds due 2025 (the "2025 global bonds"), 650,000,000 in
aggregate principal amount of its 1.200% bonds due 2033 (the "2033 global bonds") and 800,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 1.750% bonds due 2041 (the "2041 global
bonds"). We refer to the 2025 global bonds, the 2033 global bonds and the 2041 global bonds collectively as the "global bonds". The Republic will pay interest (i) on the 2025 global bonds
on April 28 of each year, commencing on April 28, 2022, (ii) on the 2033 global bonds on April 28 of each year, commencing on April 28, 2022 and (iii) on the 2041 global bonds on April
28 of each year, commencing on April 28, 2022. The Republic may not redeem the global bonds prior to their maturity. The 2025 global bonds, 2033 global bonds and the 2041 global bonds
will mature at par on April 28, 2025, April 28, 2033 and April 28, 2041, respectively. The offering of the global bonds of each series, each pursuant to this prospectus supplement, are not
conditioned upon one another.
The global bonds will be the direct, unconditional, unsecured and general obligations of the Republic and will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all
other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated external indebtedness of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make
payments under the global bonds ratably with payments being made under any other external indebtedness of the Republic.
The global bonds will be designated Collective Action Securities issued under a fiscal agency agreement, as supplemented, and constitute a separate series of debt securities under the
fiscal agency agreement. The fiscal agency agreement contains provisions regarding future modifications to the terms of the global bonds that differ from those applicable to the Republic's
outstanding external public indebtedness issued prior to February 1, 2018. Under these provisions, which are described in the section entitled "Collective Action Securities," on page 19 of the
accompanying prospectus, the Republic may, among other things, amend the payment provisions of any series of debt securities (including the global bonds) and other reserve matters listed
in the fiscal agency agreement with the consent of the holders of: (i) with respect to a single series of debt securities, more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt
securities of such series; (ii) with respect to two or more series of debt securities, if certain "uniformly applicable" requirements are met, more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of
the outstanding debt securities of all series affected by the proposed modification, taken in the aggregate; or (iii) with respect to two or more series of debt securities, more than 662/ % of the
3
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all series affected by the proposed modification, taken in the aggregate, and more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the proposed modification, taken individually.
The offering of the global bonds is conditional on the receipt of certain approvals of the Monetary Board of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, the central bank of the Republic.
The global bonds are being offered globally for sale in the jurisdictions where it is lawful to make such offers and sales. Application will be made to admit the global bonds to listing
on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to trading on the Euro MTF Market ("Euro MTF"). We cannot guarantee that the application to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange
will be approved, and settlement of the global bonds is not conditional on obtaining the listing. This prospectus supplement together with the accompanying prospectus dated November 20,
2020 constitute a prospectus for the purpose of Part IV of the Luxembourg law on prospectuses for securities dated July 16, 2019.
We expect to deliver the global bonds to investors in registered book-entry form only through the facilities of Clearstream Banking, S.A. ("Clearstream, Luxembourg" or
"Clearstream"), and Euroclear Bank, SA/NV ("Euroclear" or the "Euroclear System"), on or about April 28, 2021.

Issuer Redemption
The Republic may not redeem the global bonds prior to maturity.
Status of Bonds
The global bonds will be direct, unconditional, unsecured and general obligations of the
Republic and will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all
other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated External Indebtedness (as defined
in the accompanying prospectus) of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall
not be construed so as to require the Republic to make payments under the global bonds
ratably with payments being made under any other external indebtedness of the Republic.
The full faith and credit of the Republic will be pledged for the due and punctual payment
of all principal and interest on the global bonds. See "Description of the
Securities--Description of the Debt Securities--Status of Bonds" in the accompanying
prospectus.
Negative Pledge
With certain exceptions, the Republic has agreed that it will not create or permit to subsist
any Lien (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) on its revenues or assets to secure
External Public Indebtedness (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) of the Republic,
unless at the same time or prior thereto, the global bonds are secured at least equally and
ratably with such External Public Indebtedness. The international reserves of Bangko
Sentral represent substantially all of the official gross international reserves of the
Republic. Because Bangko Sentral is an independent entity, the Republic and Bangko
Sentral believe that the international reserves owned by Bangko Sentral are not subject to
the negative pledge covenant in the global bonds and that Bangko Sentral could in the
future incur External Public Indebtedness secured by such reserves without securing
amounts payable under the global bonds. See "Description of the Securities--Description
of the Debt Securities--Negative Pledge Covenant" in the accompanying prospectus.
Taxation
The Republic will make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the global
bonds free and clear of, and without withholding or deducting, any present or future taxes
of any nature imposed by or within the Republic, unless required by law. In that event, the
Republic will pay additional amounts so that the holders of the global bonds receive the
amounts that would have been received by them had no withholding or deduction been
required, subject to certain exceptions. See "Description of the Securities--Description of
the Debt Securities--Additional Amounts" in the accompanying prospectus.
Collective Action Clauses
The global bonds will be designated Collective Action Securities issued under a fiscal
agency agreement, as supplemented, and constitute a separate series of debt securities
under the fiscal agency agreement. The fiscal agency agreement contains provisions
regarding future modifications to the terms of the global bonds that differ from those
applicable to the Republic's outstanding external public indebtedness issued prior to
February 1, 2018. Under these
S-4


provisions, which are described in the section entitled "Collective Action Securities," on
page 19 of the accompanying prospectus, the Republic may, among other things, amend
the payment provisions of any series of debt securities (including the global bonds) and
other reserve matters listed in the fiscal agency agreement with the consent of the holders
of: (i) with respect to a single series of debt securities, more than 75% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series; (ii) with respect to two or
more series of debt securities, if certain "uniformly applicable" requirements are met, more
than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all series
affected by the proposed modification, taken in the aggregate; or (iii) with respect to two or
more series of debt securities, more than 662/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding debt securities of all series affected by the proposed modification, taken in the
aggregate, and more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt
securities of each series affected by the proposed modification, taken individually.
Cross-Defaults
Events of default with respect to the global bonds include (i) if the Republic fails to make a
payment of principal, premium, prepayment charge or interest when due on any External
Public Indebtedness with a principal amount equal to or greater than $25,000,000 or its
equivalent, and this failure continues beyond the applicable grace period; or (ii) if any
External Public Indebtedness of the Republic or the central monetary authority in principal
amount equal to or greater than $25,000,000 is accelerated, other than by optional or
mandatory prepayment or redemption. See "Collective Action Securities--Events of
Default: Cross Default and Cross Acceleration" in the accompanying prospectus.
Listing
The Republic is offering the global bonds for sale in the United States and elsewhere where
such offer and sale is permitted. Application will be made to admit the global bonds to
listing on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to trading on the Euro
MTF. The Republic cannot guarantee that the application to the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange will be approved, and settlement of the global bonds is not conditional on
obtaining the listing.
Form, Denomination and Registration
The global bonds will be issued in fully registered form in minimum denominations of
100,000 and integral multiples of 1,000 in excess thereof. The global bonds will be
represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a nominee of, and
deposited with, the common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream. Beneficial interests
in the global securities will be shown on, and the transfer thereof will be effected only
through, records maintained by Euroclear and Clearstream and their respective participants.
S-5


Settlement of all secondary market trading activity in the global bonds will be made in
immediately available funds. See "Description of the Securities--Description of the Debt
Securities--Global Securities" in the accompanying prospectus and "Global Clearance and
Settlement."
Further Issues
The Republic may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the registered
holders of the global bonds, issue further bonds which will form a single series with the
global bonds. See "Collective Action Securities--Further Issues of Debt Securities" in the
accompanying prospectus.
