Your Philippines friend doesn't need a China tourist visa to visit Hainan Island if you can provide that you 5 people have joined international tourist group organized by any of the registered travel agencies in Hainan Province which is approved by China National Tourism Administration and stay up to 21 days.The invitation letter from any of the registered travel agency in Hainan province is required. Otherwise, Your philippines friend needs to apply for a tourist visa to Hainan.
