List of Ramsar sites in the Philippines

The Ramsar Convention (formally, the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, especially as Waterfowl Habitat) is an international treaty for the conservation and sustainable utilization of wetlands,[1] recognizing the fundamental ecological functions of wetlands and their economic, cultural, scientific, and recreational value.

Two Ramsar sites in the Philippines have been declared by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites, namely Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, and Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park.

[2] Last August 01, 2024 another Two Ramsar sites were declared, Sibugay Wetland Nature Reserve and Del Carmen Mangrove Reserve (DCMR) in Siargao Island Protected Landscape and Seascape (SIPLAS).

A national inventory of wetland resources, based on the best scientific information available, is mandated by the Convention since 1990 through Recom 4.6.

This has prompted various scholars to push the government to participate more in the nominations of Philippine wetlands in the Ramsar Convention.
