The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) successfully rolled out its first-ever Civil Registration System (CRS) Mobile Services in the Province of Siquijor from June 3 to 5, 2025, making the province the pilot area for this groundbreaking initiative aimed at expanding access to vital civil registry documents.
Over the three-day activity, the CRS Mobile Services processed a total of 991 Batch Request Entry Query System (BREQS) transactions, with 941 clients served through BREQS. Demonstrating the efficiency of the pilot, the PSA also successfully processed and released 499 civil registry documents on the same day of processing, providing immediate service to residents in need of birth, marriage, death, and other civil registry documents.
As the pilot province, Siquijor played a key role in testing the operational feasibility of delivering CRS services outside fixed CRS outlets. The initiative was conducted in coordination with provincial and local government units and municipal civil registry offices across the province.

The PSA reaffirmed its commitment to expanding the CRS Mobile Services to more provinces nationwide to further refine and enhance the delivery of services on the ground.
