PSA Online Appointment 2022

The pandemic has driven most government agencies to find ways and means to continue providing services to the public while helping minimize the need to personally transact at government offices. Online service platforms were designed and activated to provide Pinoys the option to file their transactions, claims, inquiries, and follow-ups online. However, there really are some transactions that require the applicant to be physically present at the government agency’s office. In such cases, applicants are required to set an appointment with the agency to avoid overcrowding offices and long lines of people waiting to be attended to.

The Philippine Statistics Authority has recently fully implemented the PSA online appointment system for Civil Registration Services. This means that if you are planning to get a copy of a PSA birth certificate, marriage certificate, death certificate, or CENOMAR at a PSA office, you need to create an appointment online. Yes, very similar to creating an appointment for your passport application and renewal with the DFA.

If you need a copy of your PSA birth certificate, PSA marriage certificate, or CENOMAR, or would like to request the PSA death certificate of a family member, you can do so by setting a PSA online appointment to visit the nearest PSA outlet in your area.
