An acquaintance applied for a National Statistics Office (NSO) Birth Certificate delivery service online at their website, and I just wanna share on this blog entry how it went.
Before anything else, this is not an official NSO website, and that everything that is written here is based on someone’s experience as he applied for an NSO birth certificate. So, your own experience with the online application for NSO birth certificate delivery service may or may not be different from what is written here.
NSO Birth Certificate Delivery Service Requirements
- Online (live chat) or phone call application
- Birth certificate information and other personal information of the birth certificate’s owner (click to jump to info needed)
- Payment for NSO birth certificate after acquiring a reference number
- Valid ID with picture for receiving the birth certificate on the day it’s delivered to you
Cost / Fee / Amount of Payment for NSO Birth Certificate Delivery Service
So, how much does the NSO birth certificate delivery service cost? 330 pesos is charged for each copy of an NSO birth certificate. This already includes delivery charge. Please note that processing is 2 – 3 working days after payment. So it is best to pay soon after getting the reference number.
Now I’ll talk about the experience with NSO’s delivery service. It might give people curious about the process/sytem some idea how it goes.
NSO Birth Certificate Delivery – Options for Application / Request
