Official documents in the Philippines: IDs, PSA certificates and clearances

Choose the guide for your Philippine ID, civil registry certificate or local clearance. Each one names the issuing office, and a photo on your phone stays a personal copy, never the security-paper original.

For identity, download your National ID digital copy, get a TIN ID online or check the UMID ID requirements. For an LTO-issued licence, see the driver's license renewal requirements.

For PSA civil registry documents, learn how to get a PSA birth certificate, order a PSA marriage certificate online or check the CENOMAR requirements. For local and election records, see the barangay clearance requirements, the cedula requirements and how to request a voter's certification online.
