How to Check Your National ID Status Online

Quick answer

PSA tells registrants to track the National ID card with the Transaction Reference Number (TRN) on their transaction slip at tracking.phlpost.gov.ph, the PHLPost tracking site. You do not need to wait for the card to have a valid ID: request your ePhilID at a registration center, or open the Digital National ID in the eGovPH app.

What do you need before you start?

Your transaction slip with your TRN.
A phone or computer with internet.

Never post a photo of your transaction slip on social media. It carries personal data.

How do you do it, step by step?

1. Open https://tracking.phlpost.gov.ph/
2. Type your TRN in the tracking box exactly as printed on your slip, with no spaces
3. Submit and read the delivery status
4. Keep the slip until the card is in your hands

What if it does not work?

TRN not found
check every digit against the slip and try again. If it still fails, ask PSA through info@philsys.gov.ph or the 1388 hotline.
Lost your transaction slip
send your first, middle and last name, suffix, birth date and sex to info@philsys.gov.ph or call 1388 to retrieve your TRN.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use my National ID before the card arrives?

Yes. The ePhilID (paper format) and the Digital National ID in eGovPH have the same validity as the card.

Will I still get the card if I already have an ePhilID?

Yes. PSA says every registered person still receives the physical card.

I lost my transaction slip. Can I still track my card?

Not without the TRN. Ask PSA to retrieve it with your full name, suffix, birth date and sex.

Is there a fee to check status?

No. Tracking is free.
