  1. The Philippines will allow anyone with a passport from a country with diplomatic relations with the philippines to visit. If you have a Saudi passport and they have an embassy in the philippines, you can visit there. You can visit for 21 days and you must have a round trip ticket. A visa is not required for a 21 day or less visit.

    You can also contact the NSO in the Philippines and get your birth certificate the website is www.census.gov.ph


  2. You need a certified copy of your birth certificate from the hall of records or birth registry in the Philippines showing that your mother was a citizen of the Philippines at the time of your birth (if she was a citizen then -- did she renounce her Philippines citizenship before you were born?).  Then go to the Philippines consulate and get a Philippines passport.

    Good luck.

  3. Go to the Philippine embassy.  Be prepared to live there until they assist you.  Refuse to leave until you are given assistance.  You'll find several hundred Pinays doing the same thing as they wait for the Philippines and Saudi to work out your repatriation.

  4. Sorry, but your mother picked the wrong nationality to marry. Saudi Arabia is among the worst in the world for women's rights. You probably need to see a lawyer. If your mother is originally filipina and somehow you can prove you were born in the Philippines, you should be entitled to a passport. But it will be difficult without her cooperation.

  5. I don't know about the rules in KSA but if it's just your birth certificate that is your problem, any friend or relative of yours in the Philippines can get a certified true copy of your birth certificate from the National Statistics Office. All you have to provide them is your complete name, birthdate, birthplace and name of parents.  But you may have already lost your Filipino citizenship.  You can still go to the Philippine Embassy even without your birth certificate as they can also help you get one. But as you said, you have already acquired your father's citizenship so that is a complication. Go to the Philippine Embassy and make further inquiry.

  6. Find out where they keep the original copies of your birth certificate (the hospital you were born at) and write to them to find out.

  7. the only way, is if you get your hands on your birth certificate,

    or? you could try to get one at the embassy consular services,

    why not approach the Philippines embassy in Saudi and ask for help?(discreetly)

    ps:

    you must be very careful about approching the Philippines embassy about citizenship, for in KSA it is against the law to get another citizenship and may be punished by the gov.

    on your passport? it must be mentionned that you were born in the Philippines?

    i have to leave for now, but i will check into something when i get back;

    was trying to see if you could renounce your citizenship of KSA? not sure how to do this?

    go to this page with the embassy link, address and telephone number
