In a report, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) said four of the injured people were from the Bicol region, southeast of the Philippine capital Manila, Xinhua news agency reported.
It said that no death has been reported so far.
Meanwhile, the Philippine Coast Guard said more than 6,000 passengers, truck drivers and cargo holders were stranded at ports across the country on Sunday morning due to bad weather.
Eviniar, the first cyclone to hit the Philippines this year, affected the Bicol region on the main Luzon island and the Eastern Visayas region in the central Philippines.
The state weather bureau said Evinir would continue to dump heavy rains over human areas, including Metro Manila, prompting warnings of more flooding and possible landslides.
The bureau forecasts Evinir's Monda to reach severe tropical storm category by Tuesday and typhoon category by Tuesday before exiting the Philippines on Wednesday.
The Philippines is one of the most disaster-prone countries globally, primarily due to its location in the Pacific Ring of Fire and the Pacific Typhoon Belt. On average, the archipelago country is hit by 20 typhoons each year, some of which are intense and destructive.
