Check which banks' rules you meet

Loan length: 5 years.

Enter your age and monthly income to see which banks' rules you meet.

The banks' stated minimums. Banks also check your credit record and documents; meeting these rules is not an approval. Security Bank's income rule differs between its own pages, so this tool leaves it out.

Which banks finance second-hand cars?

Eight banks plus Toyota's own financing arm state second-hand terms on their own domain. Metrobank and PNB, by contrast, state their car loan is for brand-new vehicles only.

See new versus used rates side by side for the full comparison.

Use the table below as a directory, not a ranking: rate basis differs bank to bank and only BPI states an effective figure.

How old can the car be, and what income do you need?

Age rules are usually a formula, not a flat number. Security Bank allows the vehicle's age plus the remaining loan term to reach 11 years.

China Bank sets the same kind of rule at 7 years. BDO simply caps the year model at 6 years old by loan maturity.

Maybank is the most direct: the unit itself must be 1 to 10 years old.

Minimum income is stated for fewer lenders. Security Bank's second-hand page states a joint monthly gross income of ₱20,000 with a spouse.

Its main car loan page separately states ₱100,000, a conflict between the bank's own pages worth confirming directly with a branch. EastWest asks for at least ₱40,000 a month, and BDO for ₱50,000 in gross family income.

What documents does a used car loan need beyond the usual application?

A used car adds paperwork a brand-new purchase skips, because the bank has to verify the vehicle's history and title before lending against it.

How long does approval take?

Most lenders do not state a used-car processing time; see what every lender asks for at application. Security Bank is the exception among banks, quoting 3 to 5 banking days once the application and requirements are complete.

Toyota Financial Services states the fastest figure of any lender compared, but only for its own TFS-owned used stock: approval as fast as 24 hours.

Toyota Financial Services: financing on its own used stock

This product only covers vehicles Toyota Financial Services already owns, typically from repossession or lease turn-in, not a used car you found elsewhere.

In exchange for that narrower scope, the down payment and approval time both beat the bank averages above. It offers as low as 10% down, approved in as fast as 24 hours.

Questions

Which banks in the Philippines finance second-hand cars?

Eight banks state second-hand terms on their own sites: BPI, Security Bank, EastWest, RCBC, China Bank, China Bank Savings, Maybank and BDO. Toyota Financial Services also finances its own repossessed and lease-turn-in stock.

What is the lowest down payment for a used car loan?

Toyota Financial Services states the lowest figure, as low as 10%, but only for vehicles it already owns. Among banks, Maybank and BPI's product-wide minimum is 20% and 15% respectively; most others ask for 30%.

How old can a used car be and still qualify for financing?

It depends on the lender's formula. Security Bank allows vehicle age plus loan term up to 11 years, and China Bank up to 7 years.

BDO caps the year model at 6 years by maturity, and Maybank finances units 1 to 10 years old outright.

What is the interest rate on a used car loan?

Only BPI and BDO state a clear rate basis: BPI's 60-month used-car rate is 44.32% add-on, 15.50% effective; BDO's pre-owned rate is 13.00% annual effective. Other banks print figures without stating whether they are add-on or effective.

What documents do I need for a used car loan?

Beyond the standard application, expect to provide the seller's LTO OR/CR, a notarized Deed of Sale, and PNP Clearance with Macro Etching. For imported units, also provide the import papers, plus a bank-arranged inspection.

Is there auto fleet financing for used vehicles in the Philippines?

Not stated anywhere. BPI and Security Bank's business auto products cover new fleet units only; neither states a used-car fleet financing term.
