Before you plan the trip from Wilmington
Check this list first, it covers most of the reasons people book an appointment they did not need:
- PSA certificates, birth, marriage, death and CENOMAR are issued in Manila and ordered online, delivered to any US address.
- Apostilles: if anyone tells you to get a document "red ribboned" at the consulate, that advice predates 2019 and no longer works.
- NBI clearance: posted to Manila, returned by post. Do not send the application to a consulate, it will not be processed there.
What does require appearing in person is anything biometric or signed: a passport, the oath of allegiance and a special power of attorney signed before a consular officer.
