How to Register for National ID (PhilID) Philippines (National ID Card) PhilSys Nationa ID System.
PSA targets to start the registration for low-income household heads by fourth quarter this year and eventually opening the registration to the general public by 2021. PSA will establish both fixed and mobile registration centers in strategic locations to register the population to PhilSys. Currently, PSA is in coordination with LGUs, government agencies, and private sector to determine these locations. Further updates on the exact locations of registration centers will be released prior to the opening of PhilSys registration. The PhilID will not replace the existing functional IDs that serve other purposes. The PhilID is a foundational ID which serves as a valid proof of identity which would help ease transactions with both government and private sector through easier validation and authentication of identity.

The Philippine Identification System or PhilSys (National ID) is the government’s central identification platform for all Filipino citizens and resident aliens of the Philippines.
