Welcome to the

PSA Online Appointment System

Here are the steps in setting an appointment with PSA.

Step 1:

Choose the PSA CRS outlet where you would like to set an appointment. If you are in NCR and requesting for a PSA certificate that underwent Court Decrees and Legal Instruments for the first time, book an appointment at East Avenue.

Step 2:

Provide your name, email address, and mobile number. The PSA will send a copy of your appointment sheet via email. You will receive a verification code on the email address.

Step 3:

Select the type of PSA certificate that you would like to request. If you are requesting for someone else, please indicate their names and your relationship to the certificate owner.

Step 4:

Choose the date and time when you plan to visit your chosen PSA outlet.

Step 5:

Take note of the important details of the appointment. Double-check that your name, email address, and mobile number on the screen are all accurate. It is important your name matches your ID exactly. Use your complete full name, no initials.

Step 6:

You will receive a copy of your Appointment Slip via email. Please save the PDF file on your phone or print it out. You will need to print the entire form including the QR code.

Step 7:

Go to your chosen PSA outlet on the date of your appointment. Be at the outlet’s premises on time or a few minutes earlier. Bring your own pen and make sure you are protected by a face mask.
