WALA PANG NATIONAL ID CARD? DIGITAL COPY MUNA - PSA
Sa mga hindi pa nakatatanggap ng kanilang National ID card, inanunsyo ng Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) na pwede ng i-download at pansamantalang magamit ang digital version ng inyong ID.
“This is to inform the public and all relying parties of the Philippine Identification System (PhilSys) on the use and acceptance of the various formats of the PhilSys digital ID, including the printed ePhilID (electronic Philippine ID), as a valid and sufficient proof of identity and age, subject to authentication,” pahayag ng PSA sa abiso nito sa website ng ahensya nitong Miyerkules, Oktubre 5.
Ayon sa ahensya, ang PhilSys digital ID ay maaari ng magamit sa mga transaksyon alinsunod sa sinasabi ng Section 7 (c) (1) ng Republic Act (RA) 11055, o ang Philippine Identification System Act of 2018.
Ayon sa PSA, sinumang rehistrado na at mayroon ng PhilSys Number (PSN) ay maaaring makapag-download ng kanilang ePhilID.
“They can claim their ePhilID subject to its availability, by setting an online appointment, and presenting their transaction slip to their selected PhilSys Registration Centers on the reserved date,” pagtiyak ng PSA.
Bukod sa PhilSys Card Number (PCN), ang ePhilID ay naglalaman ng mga basic demographic information ng indibidwal at kaukulang QR Code at picture. Mayroon din itong public-private key cryptography bilang pagtiyak na ang QR code ay hindi mapepeke. Maaaring i-authenticate ang printed ePhilID sa pamamagitan ng pag-scan ng QR code gamit ang PhilSys Check - verify.philsys.gov.ph/QrScan/.
“If the ePhilID is authentic, the PhilSys Check will display a successful verification message and should match the demographic information found in the printed, as well as a front-facing photo of the person,” paliwanag ng PSA.
Ayon sa PSA, ang printed ePhilID ay marapat kilalanin at tanggapin bilang opisyal na government-issued identification document ng isang Pilipino sa mga transaksyon nito sa iba’t ibang ahensya ng pamahalaan, local government units, government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs), government financial institutions (GFIs), financial institutions, at private sector.
“Any person or entity who, without just and sufficient cause, proved to have refused to accept, acknowledge, and/or recognize the printed ePhilID as the only official identification of the holder/possessor thereof shall be penalized in accordance with Section 19 of RA No. 11055,” pagtatapos ng abiso. - mnp
