Philippine Consulate in the Northern Mariana Islands
The Northern Marianas fall under the Philippine Consulate General in Agana, Guam, and have their own Philippine honorary consulate in Saipan, at the JP Centre on Beach Road in Garapan.

Note what that means. An honorary consulate cannot issue a passport, administer the dual citizenship oath or notarise a document. For those you need the career post below.
Where the Northern Mariana Islands is served from
If you live in the Northern Mariana Islands, your applications go to the Philippine Consulate General in Agana, Guam. The same post also covers Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia and the Marshall Islands — one office for the whole district.

How far the consulate is from your city
Driving distances to the post that covers each city, calculated at posted speed limits and without traffic:
| City | Philippine post | Distance | Journey |
|---|---|---|---|
| Saipan | Agana, Guam | no road route | by air |
| Tinian | Agana, Guam | no road route | by air |
There is no road to the consulate from Saipan, Tinian. The journey is a flight, which is worth weighing against what the trip is actually for — several of the most searched Philippine procedures need no consular visit at all.
What you do not need a consulate for
Three of the most searched Philippine procedures in the United States are not consular procedures at all, and knowing that is worth more than knowing the opening hours:
- PSA certificates — birth, marriage, death, CENOMAR — come from the Philippine Statistics Authority and are ordered online.
- Apostilles on documents issued in the Northern Mariana Islands come from the state’s own competent authority. Since 15 May 2019 the consulate cannot authenticate them.
- NBI clearance is issued in the Philippines and applied for by mail; only the fingerprint card needs a consular officer.
What does require you in person is anything carrying your biometrics or your signature: a passport, the oath of allegiance and a special power of attorney.
Filipinos make up a large share of the population of the Commonwealth, and Guam is under an hour away by air — which makes this one of the few honorary consulates whose supervising post is genuinely close.
