Pag-IBIG Multi-Purpose Loan 2026: How to Apply and Compute Your Amortization

The Pag-IBIG Multi-Purpose Loan (MPL) is one of the fastest and most accessible emergency loans available to Filipino employees. Unlike housing loans, the MPL is a general-purpose cash loan with no requirement to specify what the money will be used for — making it a go-to option for medical emergencies, school fees, home repairs, and other personal needs.

1. Eligibility Requirements

• Active Pag-IBIG member with at least 24 monthly contributions
• Has not reached the age of 65 at time of application
• No outstanding MPL that is more than 3 months in arrears
• Employer is up to date with Pag-IBIG remittances

2. Loanable Amount (2026)

The maximum MPL you can borrow is based on your Total Accumulated Value (TAV) — the sum of all your Pag-IBIG contributions plus dividends. You may borrow up to 80% of your TAV, subject to a maximum of ₱6,000,000. However, in practice most employees' TAV results in a loan between ₱15,000–₱100,000.

3. Interest Rate and Monthly Amortization

The MPL carries an interest rate of 10.5% per annum in 2026. The loan term is up to 24 months. A sample ₱50,000 loan over 24 months:

If you are in a calamity-declared area, always check if you qualify for the Calamity Loan first.
