Philippine Honorary Consulate in Regina
This is an honorary consulate. It does not issue passports, take the RA 9225 oath or process visas; those belong to the Consulate General in Calgary, which supervises this office and runs outreach missions to Saskatoon.
Saskatchewan's honorary consul is Pepito Escanlar, an architect and visual artist from Iloilo who has lived in Canada since 1975 and was sworn in by the Ambassador in April 2022.
The office connects the province's Filipino community, roughly 40,000 people concentrated in Saskatoon and Regina, with the Consulate General in Calgary, 760 km west.

Honorary Consul Pepito Escanlar
The honorary consulate does not publish a street address or phone number.
Contact goes through the Consulate General in Calgary, and Calgary's outreach missions to Saskatoon are the practical way to reach consular services without crossing into Alberta; the April 2026 mission processed passports over three days.
What the Regina office can do
An honorary consul represents the Philippines locally without being a career diplomat, and the role is narrower than the title suggests.
This is an honorary consulate, and three things people assume it does happen elsewhere: it does not issue or renew passports, it does not take the RA 9225 dual citizenship oath, and it does not process visas. Those require the career post that supervises this office.
Where the paperwork actually happens
This office reports to the Philippine Consulate General in Calgary, which takes the biometrics, prints nothing locally and sends everything to Manila. Its outreach missions are the shortcut: the supervising post brings passport equipment to this region on announced dates.
What you can do without coming in
None of the following requires the drive.
- Overseas voter registration, pairs naturally with any other visit, and outreach kits register too
- Balikbayan privilege, the one-year stamp happens at Manila immigration, not at any office in Canada
- PSA certificates, the PSA prints them in Manila and psahelpline.ph ships to any Canadian address
- NBI clearance renewal, anyone cleared since 2014 can reorder without new fingerprints
