A barangay certificate proves that you really live in your barangay in the Philippines. It also states why you need the paper. You can get this from your barangay hall. They will ask you for this paper when you apply for a marriage license and go to a pre-marriage counseling seminar. I needed to get one for our marriage license application.
What to do:
Go to your respective barangay hall and inquire about the requirements since the rules and costs can change over time.
What I submitted to my barangay:
- 1 photocopy of my CENOMAR
- 1 photocopy of my Korean husband’s Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage
- 1 photocopy of his passport
Fee: 90 PHP
This is what mine looks like:
I hope this gives you a clear idea of how to get your barangay certificate in the Philippines. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

I am coming from America this spring to get married to my asawa ko in Cantanduanes. This is the first time I have heard of a Barangay Certificate. Is this a requirement for our civil marriage? I know about birth certificate, notice of not married, her tax info, pre marriage counseling, etc. Can I get definitive info from you?? Thanks!!!
