passports for exiting Philippines for US citizen child

10 years ago
Hi, My daughters US passport expires next month. She is a US citizen and lives in the Philippines.
I went back to the US after 5 years in Mindanao to get things set up to move everyone to the US(we have 3 daughters in total), but the state of affairs in the US has made me decide it is more wise to stay abroad.
Healthcare in the Philippines is not an option for me, but Costa Rica is reputed to have world class(rated one notch higher then the US) healthcare and as much as I enjoyed the PI's, they are just no longer an option.
So, I have a trip down to CR later this month and then getting everyone from the PI's early next month if it checks out.
My daughter will have a new Philippine passport, but her US passport will expire early next month. I wonder if anyone can say conclusively if she can exit the Philippines with only her Philippine passport?
Our country of destination is Costa rica and we will not have need for a transit visa along the way because of the route we have choose to take(avoiding the US and traveling through Mexico city instead)
Thanks a lot for any info!
