In terms of speed of services on the permit processing front, I am one of the attendees who got excited to hear about the "Paspas" launch last November 13, 2019, at Marco Polo, Ortigas.
An integrated permit application system called the 3S Plus Valenzuela City Online Services will provide a single platform for the application of permits and requests for documents. This is the first and the fastest of its kind in the country, which spares applicants from the cost and time required of personal applications at the city hall.

With the City’s commitment to be in full compliance with the Ease of Doing Business (EODB) Law, the highlight of the system is the “Paspas Permit”, the 10-second business permit application system. It allows the issuance of provisionary business permits within ten seconds after the payment confirmation. Prior to this project, the issuance of business permits at the City Hall takes about 15 to 30 minutes.
Using the 3S Plus Valenzuela City Online Services, permit applicants can apply for the following documents and services:
- Renewal or Application of New Business Permits
- Building and Construction Permit application
- Real Property Tax (RPT) payments
- Requests for Certified True Copy of Tax Declaration, Tax Mapping Certificate, Certificate of Non-Improvement and Appraisal of Real Property
- Requests for Certified True Copy of Birth, Death, and Marriage Certificate, and Court Decision
Actual business permits and documents can be delivered within three to five working days through Wide Wide World Express (formerly DHL Philippines) or Grab Express.
Payments, on the other hand, can be processed via Visa, Mastercard, debit cards, Bancnet or PayMaya.
Documentary requirements submitted through the platform are reviewed in realtime between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Mondays to Fridays. Those who were applied beyond office hours shall be processed promptly the next morning.

Provisionary Building and Construction permits shall also be obtained through the system within 10 seconds upon confirmation of payment. A provisionary permit shall be sent to the applicant’s email and they can commence construction. However, the applicant must submit the original documents to the Office of the Building Official (OBO) within 15 days, so they can get their actual permit. Failing to do so will revoke their provisionary permit.
