WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Philippine Embassy in Washington, D.C., has registered 500 Filipinos under its jurisdiction during the first three months of overseas voter registration for the 2028 National Presidential Elections.

The overseas voter registration period, which started on 01 December 2025 and ends on 30 September 2027, allows Filipinos abroad to secure their eligibility to vote for President, Vice President, Senators, and Party-List Representative in 2028.

“The high turnout of overseas voter registrants reflects the strong interest and enthusiasm of our Filipino community abroad,” said Chargé d’Affaires Felipe Cariño III. “Their registration ensures that every Filipino vote counts, no matter where they are in the world.”

Overseas voter registration requires personal appearance at the Philippine Embassy or at consular outreach missions for submission of required documents and biometric data collection.
