THE Davao City Civil Registrar Office (CCRO) launched its satellite offices for inquiries of birth, marriage certificates, marriage licenses, death certificates at SM Malls this February.
Assistant City Registrar Juliet Gasatan, in a media interview, said personnel from their office were deployed at SM City Davao and SM Lanang Premier to address people in need of civil registration for February.
Gasatan said this is in line with the Civil Registration Month Celebration.
“Pwede sila mag-inquire, pwede sila mag-request of certified photocopies, tapos pwede nila itong balikan (They can inquire, request for certified photocopies and they can get it) the next day,” she said.
CCRO personnel at SM City Davao will attend to clients on Tuesdays and Thursdays while SM Lanang satellite office will be on Saturdays and Sundays.
Gasatan added those who want to inquire about correction of their birth certificates can also inquire for the proper proceedings and requirements in the designated malls.
She said this month is intended to teach people the proper way to fill up registration forms and also to educate them the importance of registration.
“Naa pa gihapon maulaw muanhi diri mao na kami nalang muadto sa bukid para magparehistro ug maningkamot na 100 percent jud na magparehistro sa Davao City (There are still people who are shy to go to our office to register, so it is part of our initiative to go to the hinterland areas of the city to register them),” she said.
A specialized program for the Indigenous People through mobile registration will also be highlighted by the CCRO officers.
