How To Order Birth Certificate and Marriage Certificate Online | PSAHelpLine.ph

With the borders slowly opening, I started to check for the visa requirements in order to fly to some of my favorite countries like US, Korea, and Japan. Unfortunately, all my visas were already expired. Some of these visas will need your original birth certificate, and even passport renewal requires one too! So I looked up on how I can order a birth certificate online. 

PSA Help Line

PSA, or the Philippines Statistics Authority, has a website where you can conveniently order birth, marriage, death certificate, or CENOMAR online with just a few clicks. 

Delivery is door-to-door, and available anywhere in the Philippines. Delivery outside the country is still not available, though. The website also has different payment methods available, and a customer support if you will need assistance. 

PSAHelpline.ph is authorized by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) to handle online requests and nationwide delivery of PSA certificates. Launched in 2000, the service has catered to millions of Filipinos over the years. 

My ordering process experience is also very easy. Here's how:

4. Delivery 

Delivery time from my experience was super fast, around 3 days from the time I ordered. I like that I received several text message updates regarding the status of my order and estimated delivery date. I have to be present when courier arrives in our house since they only allow requester to receive these PSA documents for safety and security purposes. 

Usually for Metro Manila, documents will be delivered within 3-4 working days, while for provincial it will be within 3-8 working days. 

What to prepare for smooth delivery:

- Prepare one signed valid original government-issued ID to present to the courier. I presented my valid passport, but click here for the other IDs that you can use.

- Again, you have to be the one to receive these documents. PSAHelpline.ph abides by the policies and guidelines of the Data Privacy Act (RA 10173), and can only release ordered document to the owner or the authorized requester only.

- In case you are not available on the day of delivery, you can call (02) 8737-1111 Monday to Saturday excluding holidays, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm to make delivery arrangements.

My Experience

I always find adulting tedious, especially when applying or requesting for government documents. But with PSA HelpLine, it was very fast, efficient, and convenient, with everything done online. Delivery was also a breeze. I received the documents individually wrapped in plastic packaging to avoid getting wet or stained in transit. I was also able to easily order a marriage certificate for my senior citizen mom, para less hassle na for her. Highly recommended service!
