Boholanos are encouraged to register for the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) or more commonly known as the National ID.

The goal of establishing a national identification system is for the people to have a trusted and verifiable identification that will enable them to participate in the formal financial sector, as well as access employment opportunities and government services.

The PhilSys Fixed Registration Center (FRC) resumed operations last 24 January 2022. It is located at 2F Galleria Luisa Building, Gallares St., Tagbilaran City, and is open from Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 6 PM. Meanwhile, Step 2 Registration in the municipalities of Antequera, Baclayon, Candijay, Cortes, Dauis, Loon, Panglao, and Ubay resumed last 03 February 2022 and is conducted from Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 5 PM. The schedule for other municipalities will be announced later.
