COP to PHP today: Colombian peso to Philippine peso

₱18.97per 1,000 COP · official rate as of 2 Oct 2026+0.39% vs 1 Oct 2026

1,000 Colombian pesos = ₱18.97, and ₱1,000 buys 52,714.51 COP. The BSP does not publish a Colombian peso rate; this figure is the Banco de la República (Colombia) rate worked through the BSP dollar rate. Against 2 Oct 2025, when it was ₱0.0150, 1,000,000 COP brings ₱4,001.11 more (1,000,000 × ₱0.004001). Next: ask the sending firm how many pesos will arrive and test it in the quote checker; collect at a BSP-registered office near you (offices by province).

Rate: Banco de la República (Colombia) representative market rate (TRM) of 3,307.73 COP per US dollar on 2 Oct 2026, converted at the BSP weighted average dollar rate on the 2 Oct 2026 bulletin (₱62.7480). Working: ₱62.7480 per US$ ÷ 3,307.73 COP per US$ = ₱0.0190.

1 COP = ₱0.0190 · ₱1 = 52.7145 COP · official rate (BANREP via BSP dollar rate), 2 Oct 2026

The converter applies the 2 Oct 2026 rate with no fee or spread.

Receiving COP transfers in the Philippines

Cash remittances from Colombia reached US$0 million in 2025 (BSP, preliminary).

Colombian pesos sent to the Philippines are normally converted by the sending firm and paid out in pesos: into a bank account, an e-wallet such as GCash or Maya, or as cash at a remittance agent. Ask for the peso amount before you send, because that figure already includes the firm's rate.

Neither BPI nor Metrobank posts a board rate for Colombian peso notes, so ask the sender to have the money paid out in pesos rather than carry the cash home. Find a registered office near you on the remittance centres by province page, compare e-wallet cash-in and cash-out fees, and check the InstaPay and PESONet fee before moving the pesos to your bank.

How Philippine tax treats COP you receive

  • Money family abroad sends you is not part of your gross income: gifts are excluded under NIRC Sec. 32(B)(3), and an OFW's pay earned abroad is not taxed here under Sec. 23(C). Money paid to you for work is income in any currency. More: are remittances taxable?
  • OFW remittances are exempt from documentary stamp tax when the recipient shows the OFW's OEC or OWWA certificate (RA 8042 Sec. 35 as amended by RA 10022). More: documentary stamp tax.
  • Kept in a foreign currency deposit, the interest of a resident is taxed at a 20% final tax since 1 July 2025 (RA 12214, CMEPA). More: final tax.
  • A business converts COP amounts at the BSP rate on the transaction day, is taxed on forex gains only when realized, and loses other rates in an audit unless it filed the sworn statement (BIR RMC 12-2024). More: income tax.

COP to PHP questions

How much is 2,000,000 COP in Philippine pesos?

2,000,000 × ₱0.0190 = ₱37,940.22 at the 2 Oct 2026 rate, and 10,000,000 COP is ₱189,701.09. What arrives is lower by the provider's fee and rate margin.

What is the highest COP to PHP rate?

In the three years to 2 Oct 2026 the highest daily value was ₱0.0204 on 14 Sep 2026 and the lowest ₱0.0129 on 8 May 2025. By monthly average, the highest since October 2023 was ₱0.0197 in September 2026. Source: Banco de la República (Colombia).

Will the Colombian peso go up against the peso?

Nobody can know that in advance. It moves with interest-rate decisions of the BSP and the central bank of Colombia, trade and remittance flows, and global risk appetite. Over the last year it ranged from ₱0.0148 (15 Oct 2025) to ₱0.0204 (14 Sep 2026).

Why does my bank or app give less than ₱0.0190?

This is a reference rate with no spread; anyone buying Colombian pesos from you pays less and may add a fee. Neither BPI nor Metrobank posts a board rate for the Colombian peso (boards as of 2 Oct 2026, 4:19 PM and 2 Oct 2026, 9:09 AM), so ask the sender to have the money paid out in pesos and compare the pesos that arrive.

Which rate applies on a weekend or holiday?

The Banco de la República (Colombia) and the BSP publish only on their working days, so the 2 Oct 2026 figure stays in use until both publish again, Monday 5 Oct 2026 at the earliest. Source: Banco de la República (Colombia) rates page.

Does the sender owe tax on a large gift from Colombia?

Possibly. Donor's tax is 6% of a donor's total gifts above ₱250,000 in a calendar year (NIRC Sec. 99 as amended by RA 10963), and the sender owes it, not the recipient. At the 2 Oct 2026 rate, ₱250,000 is 13,178,627.21 COP. Source: RA 10963 (TRAIN), Sec. 99.
