It's Me, Gracee: How to apply NBI

Online NBI Clearance Application

How to apply NBI Friday, January 24, 2014

For years now, Filipinos are having a hard time getting an NBI Clearance. The line is always long and you have to wait for hours just to get your clearance ready and if you're lucky, your name has a hit, you have to wait for a week or so just to get your clearance.

Now, finally they have an Online Application that will somehow lessen the hassle and stress.

Online application for NBI Clearance will be available beginning April 1, NBI spokesperson
Nick Suarez announced.

The registration and appointment system for the NBI clearance will all be done online nationwide. Applicants may accomplish the application form at www.doj.gov.ph/nbi, www.nbi.gov.ph, and clearance.nbi.gov.ph.

After registering online, applicants may proceed to any of the 55 NBI sites nationwide for the payment and biometric enrollment before their their clearance is released.

The NBI Clearance System is a component of the flagship National Justice Information System (NJIS) to link and share information among justice sector institutions.

The new system also includes an Automated Cashiering Module for the consistent accounting reports that eliminate malversation and corruption and a Renewal Module to ease the hassles of securing a clearance for those with existing ones.
