Is a pawnshop or remittance center BSP-listed?

Result for Sulu

All 36 pawnshop and money service companies with offices in Sulu are on the BSP pawnshop and money service business lists as of 30 September 2025. 11 other offices here are on the delisted lists.

Pawnshops
Pawn only at a pawnshop on the BSP list: the law requires registration before it makes its first loan (Presidential Decree No. 114, Sec. 6). Keep the signed pawn ticket. The pawnshop must give you one for every loan (Presidential Decree No. 114, Sec. 12). Missed the due date? You still have 90 days from maturity to redeem the item by paying the principal and interest (Presidential Decree No. 114, Sec. 13). You must be notified before an unredeemed item is sold, and it can only be sold at a public auction (Presidential Decree No. 114, Secs. 14 and 15).
Remittance companies and money changers
Send or claim money only at a BSP-registered remittance company or money changer. Each registered head office holds a BSP Certificate of Registration and a metal plate with its registration number (BSP Circular No. 1206, Series of 2024, Sec. 102-M). At a sub-agent counter, look for the posted sign naming the remittance company it represents (BSP Circular No. 1206, Series of 2024, Sec. 104-M).
Banks
Every bank office on these lists operates with BSP authority, and a universal or commercial bank needs prior BSP approval for each new branch (Republic Act No. 8791, Secs. 6 and 20).

Who licenses these offices

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) authorizes every bank office (Republic Act No. 8791), supervises pawnshops (Presidential Decree No. 114) and registers remittance companies and money changers (BSP Circular No. 1206, Series of 2024). The counts here are the offices on its lists.

These pages list offices and their BSP status only. Opening hours, fees and exchange rates come from the bank or company itself. For a problem with a transaction, raise it with the bank or company first, then with the BSP through its consumer assistance channels. For a legal claim, see a lawyer.

No bank, pawnshop or remittance company pays to appear here or to change its order. Lists run from the most offices to the fewest.
