What you can settle from Rutland without travelling
The most common wasted journey in this system is for a document the consulate cannot produce. There are three of them:
- PSA certificates: the Philippine Statistics Authority prints them, not the consulate. You order them on the web and they arrive by courier.
- Apostilles on American documents come from the issuing state’s competent authority. Since 15 May 2019 the consulate cannot authenticate them.
- NBI clearance: posted to Manila, returned by post. Do not send the application to a consulate, it will not be processed there.
The counter is unavoidable for exactly three things: passport biometrics, the RA 9225 oath and signing a notarial document in front of an officer. Everything else deserves a second look before you drive.
philippineconsulates.us is an independent information guide to the Philippine consulates in the United States.

We check the details regularly, but they can change without notice, always confirm with the consulate before you travel.
