Permanent validity of certificates of live birth, death and marriage
By Persida Acosta

Dear PAO,

My mother asked me to check her documents for her passport application, and I noticed that she wanted to present a birth certificate that was still issued by the National Statistics Office (NSO). I know that the NSO changed its name to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) over a decade ago, and I wish to know if birth certificates issued by the NSO are still valid.
