How to Track My National ID?

There are two main ways to track your National ID in the Philippines:

Let’s explore both options in detail.

National ID Tracking via PHLPost (for Physical Card)

The Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) handles the delivery of your physical National ID card. If you want to know whether your ID has been dispatched or delivered, follow these steps.

Steps to Track National ID via PHLPost

If your National Id is processed, but you haven't received the physical copy of it, you can download National ID digital copy in PDF format. This is widely accepted.

Note: If you see a "Not Found" message, it means your ID is still being processed and has not yet been handed over to PHLPost.

National ID Tracking QR Code

If you want to verify your National ID digitally, you can use the QR code on your PhilID.

This tool confirms if your ID is valid and authentic. It's especially useful if you have the digital or printed paper version of your PhilID

How to Track National ID Without TRN

If you've lost your Transaction Reference Number, don’t worry. You can still track your National ID by visiting the registration center where you enrolled.

What You Need to Provide:

The staff will help retrieve your TRN so you can proceed with tracking. You can also contact the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) for assistance through their official channels.

National ID Tracking by Name

At the moment, there is no direct way to track your National ID by name online. However, you can retrieve your TRN using your name at the registration center. Once you get the TRN, you can use it on the PHLPost tracker to check the delivery status.
