Opening An Account

If you are employed, you need to provide your Social Security System (SSS) or Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) Number and Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). If you are retired, you need to provide only your TIN. If you are a student, your student number is acceptable. For minors or persons below the age of 18, parents need to submit their child’s birth certificate and handle the In-Trust-For Account.

In the application form, please supply the Government Identification Number equivalent to the Philippines’ SSS/GSIS/TIN Number and if some items are not applicable to you, kindly state “NA.”
