MANILA – The Commission on Elections (Comelec) said it is coordinating with government agencies to serve as registration centers for overseas voters ahead of the May 2028 elections.

The poll body’s Office for Overseas Voting (OFOV) announced that the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO), the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) – Office of Consular Affairs (OCA), and the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) will act as Local Field Registration Centers (LFRCs).

“Clients with transactions there can also register as overseas voters at the Local Field Registration Centers,” Comelec-OFOV said. “Register now and make your voice heard during the elections. Ensure your right to vote even when you are abroad.”

The LFRCs are located at:

  • DFA-OCA, ASEANA Business Park, Parañaque City – Monday to Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.
  • CFO, Nexgen Tower, EDSA Extension, Pasay City – Monday to Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • DMW, Blas F. Ople Building, Mandaluyong City – Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Applicants may register to vote in the 2028 elections, update their personal information, reactivate their registration, or verify their overseas voter status. They are required to bring a Philippine passport, Seafarer’s Record Book (for seafarers), or a Certified Copy of Approval of Retention or Reacquisition of Philippine Citizenship (for dual citizens).

The overseas voter registration period began on December 1, 2025, and will run until September 30, 2027.
