What is the age requirement for a Senator? To be eligible for the Senate, a person must meet specific age requirements. The candidate must be at least thirty-five years of age on the day of the election. This ensures that the upper house consists of individuals with sufficient maturity and experience. This qualification is mandated under Article VI, Section 3 1987 Philippine Constitution. “SECTION 3. No person shall be a Senator unless he is a natural-born citizen of the Philippines, and, on the day of the election, is at least thirty-five years of age, able to read and write, a registered voter, and a resident of the Philippines for not less than two years immediately preceding the day of the election.” 01-Feb-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
