List of Filipino Nobel laureates and nominees

The Nobel Prizes and the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences are a set of awards given, according to Alfred Nobel's will, to "those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to mankind."

Since its establishment, the prize has been awarded 609 times to 975 people and 27 organizations including one Filipino Nobel laureate – Rappler journalist Maria Ressa who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 with Russian journalist Dmitry Muratov in recognition for their contributions to press freedom. The American chemist Richard F. Heck was a long-time resident in the Philippines when he was awarded the 2010 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Before Ressa's win, Filipinos speculated multiple times when and who will be the first to win from their country. According to OPCW member Franz Ontal, winning the Nobel Prize is the last thing a Filipino could think of. Hence, the lack of Nobel laureates from the country.

The American news publication Foreign Policy has listed former Philippine president Corazon Aquino alongside Mahatma Gandhi, Eleanor Roosevelt, Ken Saro-Wiwa and Václav Havel as people who "never won the prize, but should have". Filipino journalist Romulo Virola noted Ramon Magsaysay, Manuel L. Quezon, Felipe Agoncillo, Concepción Felix, Josefa Llanes Escoda, Lope K. Santos, Trinidad Pardo de Tavera, Huseng Batute, Carlos Bulosan, and Zoilo Galang as "Filipinos who could have won the Nobel Prize if only they were nominated."

Laureates
Despite having only one Nobel laureate, numerous Filipinos (both citizens within the country and living in overseas communities) and Philippine-based organizations were affiliated with laureate organizations of which they contributed largely and were active members at the time the organization was awarded:
 * the Philippine Red Cross being part of the 1963 Nobel laureate League of Red Cross Societies;
 * the UNICEF Philippines being part of the 1965 Nobel laureate UNICEF;
 * the Philippine Campaign to Ban Landmines being member of the 1997 Nobel laureate International Campaign to Ban Landmines;
 * Vivian Talambiras-Cruz being part of the 2005 Nobel laureate International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA);
 * Jose Ramon Villarin, Rex Victor Cruz, Juan M. Pulhin, Rosa T. Perez and Rodel Diaz Lasco being members and contributors of the 2007 Nobel laureate Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC);
 * Franz Ontal et al. being members of the 2013 Nobel laureate Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW);
