The Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) clarifies that Filipinos applying for a Postal ID do not need to already have a valid government-issued identification card. According to PHLPost, first-time applicants submit supporting documents that verify identity and address, rather than an existing ID. The requirements include a birth certificate and a barangay certificate or other acceptable proof of address, along with a duly accomplished Postal ID application form. PHLPost’s statement is meant to address confusion about whether applicants must present an existing valid government ID as part of the application process. Both outlets reporting the clarification emphasize that the Postal ID application is open to people who may not currently hold an acceptable government-issued ID, provided they can present the specified alternative documents. The guidance focuses on the set of documents required for first-time applicants and the completeness of the application form.
