Miss Universe Philippines has selected its delegates through the Accredited Partners Program since 2024. The program designates accredited partners to oversee the selection of candidates for the national pageant, as well as the candidates for The Miss Philippines pageant.
There are 42 accredited partners, from different provinces, cities, municipalities, and international Filipino communities, registered with the pageant.
On April 11, 2023, the Miss Universe Philippines Organization introduced the Accredited Partners Program during its press presentation at the Marquis Events Hall in Taguig, ahead of its 2023 edition. [1] The program will oversee the selection of delegates from the 2024 pageant onwards, replacing the application process used by the pageant since its inception. Instead, candidates will qualify by either securing victory in local pageants organized by accredited partners or receiving appointment from accredited partners. [2]
In addition to selecting the delegates to the Miss Universe Philippines pageants, the accredited partners may send delegates to the sister pageant, The Miss Philippines. [3]
