When I had to submit my PRC license two days ago, I found out that it was already expired! Given that we’re restricted from going out frequently, I’m sure there’s a simple way to do it online. I just opened my laptop, and I was able to renew my PRC license online in 15 minutes!
Let me share with you the steps on how to renew PRC license online from the comfort of your home! 🙂

Licensure Examination & Registration Information System, also known as LERIS, is a useful website for any professional who aspires to get a license. You can do all your transactions from exam application, initial registration, verification, and renewal.
PRC license is valid for three years, and renewable during the birth date. Who would not remember to renew their license if it falls on one’s special day, right?

Update details
Regardless if your account is new or not, it’s very important to update your profile. You will be asked to update the following:
Contact Details: Address, Mobile Number, Email Address
Family Background: Father’s Name, Mother’s Name & Spouse
Education: School Name, Address, Degree Course, Date of Graduation
Employment: Practicing Profession, Employment Status, Location, Nature of Work
Select Transaction
Once you have updated your details, select transaction. The icon is found on the upper right corner of the page. It’s quite difficult not to notice it since it’s highlighted on LERIS. See it for yourself. Haha.
Renewal is the third option. Once you click it, kindly choose your profession and enter your PRC license. (Get your OLD license)
Set Appointment
This is my favorite part! It makes the steps easy and convenient. To be fair, there are many online booking system that is not considered fully online. You get a slot but you need to settle the other details once you visit the center.
LERIS allows us choose the center where you wish to pick up the ID. It also provides the date when it is available! When I did it on October 20, I chose Robinsons Place Manila. The pick up date is in January.
It’s quite far but the other centers such as PRC Main Office in Morayta do not have any guaranteed slots.
Browse the dropdown options for more places or locations available.
Complete Payment
Review all the details in the left corner. If you think everything is correct, you can now complete your payment. It costs 450php only.
There are three payment channels available: PayMaya Visa, PayMaya App, or UCPB. Please note that each has convenience fee.
In my case, I chose PayMaya Visa. Once I entered the details and verified the transaction, I finally got the confirmation result!
Renew PRC License Online: Verification
The best way to verify if it’s successful is by clicking Existing Transactions Tab. Click the tab under Profile, and you will see the details.
You may also print the document, which you will bring on the date of appointment.
If you repeat the renewal process, LERIS will prompt a warning of an existing transaction under your ID.
