Civil Service Transmittals

Official Endorsement Drafting & Routing Guidelines

The Endorsement Letter Generator creates standard administrative transmittal endorsements used across Philippine bureaucracy. In civil service record management, an Endorsement (e.g., 1st Endorsement, 2nd Endorsement) is an official communication attached to an existing document or case file to route it up or down the administrative chain of command.

Instead of rewriting an entire letter, an endorsement acts as a formal carrier note: identifying the underlying request or complaint, stating the recommending action (e.g., favorable consideration, for investigation, or appropriate action), and certifying the transmittal to the next agency or official.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Input Transmitting Agency Header: Enter your Agency, Regional Office, or Division name, office location, and contact information.
  2. Designate Endorsement Order: Indicate whether this is a 1st Endorsement, 2nd Endorsement, or subsequent transmittal.
  3. Identify the Recipient Authority: Enter the official name, position, and office address of the officer or agency receiving the routed file.
  4. Reference the Subject Matter or File: Identify the underlying communication (e.g., Letter dated March 15, 2026 from Mr. Juan Dela Cruz regarding retirement benefit computation).
  5. Select Routing Phrasing & Recommendation: Choose formal phrasing such as Respectfully referred to..., Respectfully forwarded recommending approval..., or For appropriate action and feedback.
  6. Export for Document Tracking: Verify the generated layout against your tracking slip, then click Copy Text or Print / PDF.

Guidelines & Practical Notes

Transmittal Tracking Numbers

Always log the endorsement number and date into your agency's Document Tracking System (DTS) or physical logbook prior to physical releasing.

Standard Endorsement Terminology

Use standard civil service phrases: Respectfully referred when transmitting between coordinate offices, and Respectfully submitted or Respectfully forwarded when submitting to higher superiors.

Enclosures and Attachments

Include an explicit count of attached pages or annexes (e.g., contents noted, with 4 enclosures) to safeguard against missing records in transit.

ARTA Processing Timelines

Under Republic Act 11032 (Ease of Doing Business Act), transmittal endorsements should be processed promptly within prescribed 3-day (simple) or 7-day (complex) government windows.
