1. postal ID? a valid id. you can get it from the postal office, just bring with you sny two of your existing valid ids, birth certificate and barangay clearance. God bless!
2. Answerer above got it right. Try to go to the bigger postal offices. A postal ID serves as a valid picture ID.
3. A postal Id is a government issued Id thus is acceptable by banks and government agencies. You can get a postal Id from the bigger post office like in Manila or Makati. To get a postal Id, you need a barangay clearance. The fee charged by the barangay for the clearance varies. In our barangay, you must pay one hundred pesos. Since I live in a residential subdivision, the barangay requires a clearance from the President of the Homeowner Association ( HA ) where my house is located. The fee for a HA clearance varies. In my HA, its one hundred pesos. The post office charges seventy pesos for the Id. You have to provide four identical photos - 2x2 and 1x1. Have a nice day !
4. You'll spend around 300php on everything including the ID photo. It is a valid ID, you can use it in the absence of any valid ID--like driver's license, PRC license, passport, voter's ID. Requirements: Barangay clearance and resident's certificate, 4pcs. 2x2 ID pic., and filled out application form
5. A Postal ID is a valid ID where it was recognized by banks and most government agencies that requires you for some identification. You can get it on the Postal office of your town or municipality. P290.00 for a postal ID 2 pcs 2x2 ID picture, Barangay Certificate, Residence certificate (cedula) it will take 5 years before that ID will expire.
