What are the qualifications for the Vice-President of the Philippines?

  The Vice-President is required to meet the exact same criteria as the individual running for President. They must be a natural-born citizen, a registered voter, and able to read and write. Furthermore, they must meet the same age and residency requirements established for the presidency. This ensures that the Vice-President is always prepared to assume the higher office if necessary. Article VII Section 3 1987 Philippine Constitution   “SECTION 3. There shall be a Vice-President who shall have the same qualifications and term of office and be elected with and in the same manner as the President. He may be removed from office in the same manner as the President.”   03-Feb-26
