March 2, 2023 Dear Ms. Merino, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Feb 28, 2023 09:19:11 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. Your Request You asked for barangay logo and dry seal of barangay nibaliw. Response to Request Please be advised that as a matter of policy, the NHCP does not include barangay seals in its registry, as the use of corporate seals for Barangays was not envisioned by the Department of Local Government. Per DILG Memorandum Circular No. 92-30 (dated 8 June 1992), "In the case of Barangays, the city or municipal seal shall be adopted in toto... The name of the Barangay shall occupy the top portion of the ring border, while the bottom shall indicate the name of the city or the municipality."
