ABOUT THE SERVICE: 

This law amends Article 376 and 412 of the Civil Code of the Philippines which now authorizes the Municipal Civil Registrar to correct clerical or typographical error and change of first name or nickname in the Civil Register concerning the records of Birth, Marriage and Death of an individual person without the necessity of filing it in the proper court. This is the most expeditious and cheapest way because it requires less time and minimal cost in the process.
