Most people find out the real problem isn’t the bloodline.
Every Philippines case gets a document list built from that family's actual line. A marriage certificate appears only where a name actually changes; a death certificate only where the programme asks for one.
If your case doesn’t need it, you never see it. One of these records is needed for every person on your line, so your own total depends on how far back your line goes — we work it out once we know.
Your anchor ancestor’s records serve every relative applying on the same line. Family members see status. They never see the document.
Our fee is $100 a person. Everything else goes to a government or a records office, at cost, never marked up.
$100 per person, one time. Whole dollars, no subscription.
We do not publish a government fee for Philippines yet. Rather than estimate one, we leave it out — you will see the real figure before anything is ordered.
If you're thinking about actually going, our sister platform covers what it costs to live in Philippines, how residency works, and what the tax picture looks like.
A Philippines passport doesn’t require you to move. But if moving is the point, it’s worth knowing the numbers before you start a long paperwork process.
Families frequently qualify for more than one country. The free check shows every path, so you can choose on the merits rather than on the one you happened to think of.
