Ref. No. 20CRS02-03-1040

This memorandum provides interim guidelines for the delayed registration of civil documents due to the enhanced community quarantine in the Philippines. It instructs local civil registrars to relax requirements for voluminous registrations from institutions and waive payments during the quarantine period. It also provides that documents registered during this time should be marked as "Delayed Registration" with the actual date of receipt entered. Regular submissions of registered documents for March 2020 will be extended to the end of April 2020. Events prior to the quarantine declaration must still follow regular delayed registration rules.

MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 2020-09

TO : ALL CITY/MUNICIPAL CIVIL REGISTRARS (C/MCRs) and


SHARIA CIRCUIT REGISTRARS

SUBJECT : Interim Guidelines on the Process of Delayed Registration of


Civil Registry Documents Due to the Implementation of Enhanced
Community Quarantine

DATE : 25 March 2020

The PSA recognizes that business transactions before the Local Civil Registry Offices (LCRO’s)
and Sharia Circuit Courts all over the country are hampered especially on the process of registering
civil registry documents due to the implementation of the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ)
in Luzon and other parts of the country. In order to guide the C/MCRs and Sharia Circuit Registrars
on the process of delayed registration of civil registry documents, the following guidelines must be
observed:

1. For voluminous registrations coming from hospitals, funeral parlors, lying-in clinics,
solemnizing officers, and other authorized institutions, stringent requirements for delayed
registration must be relaxed;

2. PSA enjoins all concerned Local Chief Executives and Local Civil Registrars to process
the delayed registration of vital events within this ECQ period with waived payments;

3. As to recording of the civil registry documents in their respective Registry Books pertaining
to the date of registration, the actual date when these documents are received and
registered by the C/MCR and Sharia Circuit Registrar shall be entered in the Registry
Books. The annotation “Delayed Registration” should be indicated in the remarks portion
of the civil registry document and of the Registry Book.

4. Regular submission of registered civil registry documents for the month of March 2020 at
the LCROs and Sharia Courts to their respective PSA Provincial Statistics Office will be
extended up to the end of April 2020.

Vital events that occurred prior to the declaration of Luzon-wide ECQ but were not yet reported
and registered with the concerned C/MCR and Sharia Circuit Registrars must observe the regular
process of registration, thus, the requirements of delayed registration pursuant to the existing
rules and regulations on civil registration shall be followed.

For strict compliance.
