Where these figures come from

About these figures: the numbers below come from PSA's official published sources: Philippine Statistics Authority | Census Serbilis Center Directory, Metro Manila (https://psa.gov.ph/directory/census-serbilis-center-metro-manila, retrieved 2026-08-31); PSA Serbilis (https://www.psaserbilis.com.ph/, retrieved 2026-08-31); Philippine Statistics Authority | Administrative Petition for Correction under RA 9048, as Amended (https://psa.gov.ph/administrative-petition-for-correction, retrieved 2026-08-31). Agencies change fees and rates without notice, so confirm with PSA before you rely on them. Last verified: 2026-08-31.

PSA is not one office with one number. It runs Census Serbilis Centers, regional field offices, an online arm and a legal unit, and each answers a different kind of question.

Delivery, and who actually carries it

Destination Courier
Within the Philippines LBC Express
International DHL Express

PSA Serbilis states deliveries are handled only by those authorised couriers, so a call about a parcel goes to the courier once it has shipped.

Most calls are avoidable if you have the details PSA asks for on the request itself.

What this page does not cover

PSA does not publish, on the pages read for this guide, opening hours for individual Census Serbilis Centers, a national toll-free number, an average call waiting time, a live chat channel, or the addresses of outlets outside Metro Manila in the detail given here. None of those are stated here.

The PSA online request guide covers the three ordering routes. The PSA birth certificate guide and the CENOMAR guide cover the two most-requested documents.
