Philippines Investigation

Due Diligence Philippines

Verify companies, business partners, ownership, records, and other key claims before making a major business decision.

Due diligence in the Philippines can help verify whether a company, business partner, executive, supplier, or investment opportunity is what it claims to be before you commit money, sign an agreement, or enter a long-term relationship.

Depending on the case, we may review corporate records, ownership information, business registrations, litigation or court-related information, addresses, professional credentials, and other background details relevant to the transaction.

We assist foreign investors, businesses, law firms, and professional clients with due diligence investigations across Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, Makati, and provincial areas throughout the Philippines.

Due Diligence Investigations in the Philippines — What You Need to Know

A due diligence investigation can help verify important claims about a Philippine company, business partner, supplier, executive, or investment opportunity before money changes hands or a long-term agreement is signed.

The scope can range from basic company verification to a more detailed review of corporate records, ownership information, litigation history, business addresses, professional credentials, reputation, and other risk factors relevant to the transaction.

We arrange due diligence investigations across Metro Manila, Makati, BGC, Cebu, Davao, and provincial areas. Many standard cases can be completed within 5–7 business days, while more complex or multi-subject investigations may require additional time.

What Records and Sources May Be Checked

The sources used depend on the company, individuals involved, and the purpose of the investigation. Corporate verification may include available Securities and Exchange Commission records for registered corporations and partnerships, while sole proprietorship business-name information may be checked through the Department of Trade and Industry.

Professional licenses can be verified through the appropriate Philippine licensing authority, including the Professional Regulation Commission for regulated professions. Where relevant, we may also review available court records, company filings, business addresses, local records, media coverage, and other background information connected to the company or its principals.

Property or asset-related verification may involve Land Registration Authority or Registry of Deeds information when appropriate and available. Not every record is publicly accessible, and availability can depend on the type of record, location, and identifying information provided.

What a Due Diligence Investigation Can Help Identify

Due diligence may identify issues such as inconsistencies in company registration details, unclear ownership or management relationships, litigation involving the company or its principals, addresses that cannot be confirmed, professional credentials that do not match official records, or other discrepancies that may affect a business decision.

The purpose is not to assume fraud. It is to independently verify the important claims behind the transaction and clearly distinguish what can be confirmed from what remains uncertain or unavailable.

Who Uses Due Diligence Investigations in the Philippines

Clients include foreign investors, international companies, law firms, business owners, distributors, suppliers, executives, family offices, and other professional clients that need information verified before entering a transaction or business relationship in the Philippines.

I met an exceptionally handsome man on a well known dating platform and began to communicate with him via WhatsApp. Over the ensuing week, I received messages, voice notes and phone calls, as well as photos. However, I was suspicious from the start that he was just 'too good to be true'. I used the information I had been given over the course of a week and ran a number of reverse image searches on the photos I had received, but everything came back without a match. But this man seemed to have no social media presence at all and the alarm bells kept ringing. At this point I knew I needed some professional assistance and found Teser on an internet search. I completed their quote form with as much information as I had. The company were amazing. Teser were supportive and understanding. I received details of what they could do to identify this romance scammer and a quote that seemed perfectly reasonable. In just 2 days Teser had clarified that the person I thought I was talking to did not exist and had found out where all the photos sent to me had come from. Throughout the process I dealt with just one senior investigation analyst who was polite, sympathetic and non judgemental If you think there is the potential that you might be being romance scammed, get that person checked out. I promise it will save you a lot of difficulties later on. The price you will pay for an investigation is insignificant compared to what a scammer will take from you.

This was the first time I used a private investigation service so I was a little apprehensive at first, but Teser’s responsiveness and clear communications with me made me feel at ease. Via email, they walked me through the entire process and set clear expectations, which gave me immense peace of mind. Teser did a very professional and diligent work on my case. In particular, I appreciate the late nights, the pictures, speaking with people, and other creative things their local investigators in the Philippines did as part of their surveillance work. The detailed, thorough report they provided was exactly what I needed. It helped me get the answers I was looking for. Hiring Teser was truly the best decision I made. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a private detective anywhere in the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a due diligence investigation in the Philippines cost?

Due diligence investigations typically start around $450 USD for standard business verification. More complex cases involving multiple companies, principals, litigation research, or asset-related work may cost more depending on scope. We provide a clear quote before work begins.

How long does a due diligence investigation take?

Many due diligence investigations are completed within 5–7 business days. More complex or multi-subject cases may take longer, especially when court records, local verification, or multiple institutions are involved. We provide a realistic timeline before work begins.

What records do you check for due diligence in the Philippines?

Depending on the case, we may review available SEC corporate records, DTI business-name information for sole proprietorships, court and litigation information, property-related records where appropriate, professional licenses, company addresses, media coverage, and other relevant background sources.

Can you investigate a company and its owners at the same time?

Yes. A due diligence investigation can include both the business entity and key principals when that is relevant to the transaction. The scope may cover registration details, management or ownership information, litigation, professional credentials, business relationships, and other background issues.

Will the company or person know they are being investigated?

Due diligence investigations are generally handled discreetly. We do not contact the subject unless contact or direct verification is part of the agreed scope and you have approved that approach.

Do I need to be based in the Philippines to use your service?

No. We assist clients based outside the Philippines and can arrange the local research and verification on your behalf. Findings are provided directly to you once the investigation is completed.
