how to get nbi clearance

UPDATED: December 2, 2017. We will guide you in detail on how to apply for NBI Clearance online, NBI Clearance payment procedures, as well as the on-site processing. This new NBI Clearance online method aims for the application process to be more efficient with lesser processing time for the advantages of:

  1. Applicants could fill-out anytime, anywhere the NBI Clearance onlineapplication form via the NBI official website at https://www.nbi-clearance.com/
  2. Biometrics and Photo-taking parts of NBI Clearance application could be scheduled at a later date
  3. Payments could be made at any third party NBI authorized collection centers.

 

But, with these advantages and such, there are some problems reported to us that leaves our fellow applicants in great confusion as they go through their NBI Clearance online processing:

  1. There are no clear payment instruction if the applicant wants to pay via the NBI Cashier,
  2. There are instances wherein applicants are having trouble in relogging-in to their NBI Clearance online account after they have already paid their fees.
  3. The appointment system is not strictly followed since there were reports that there are applicants paying at the NBI Cashiers that are not scheduled for the day.
  4. The NBI system experiences technical difficulties that lead to delayed releasing of batches of NBI Clearances.

 

Almost everyday,we receive messages regarding these issues and we try our best to help our fellowmen in resolving their problems. We have released a full article guide for the  NBI Clearance Online Payment Options and you can view it here: “Detailed Guide | NBI Clearance Payment Options“

  3. Hi, when you log into your account, on the upper left-hand of your screen, you will see “Transaction” button. C1ick that then you will be directed to your transactions page where you should see the “Confirm Payment” green button under the “Actions” Header. That is, if you have completely accomplished the payment process. See here for more info. http://www.aplikante.info/nbi-clearance-payment/

  4. I’m trying online application for nbi clearance the problem is I don’t have middle name. The reason is I was born with a father but they broke up so they registered me without a middle name. at the beginning I don’t have middle name even on my birth certificate. what can should I do since I wanted to make things faster rather than takin another 4 steps longer than the online registration?

  11. Pabago-bago ng process. Hassle tsk. Isa lang ang email address ko, nagamit ko na rin last year(2015) sa pagkuha ng nbi clearance. Kukuha sana ako ulit ako ngayon. Pero kapag nagfifill up ako maski “new” or “renew” kapag dumadating ako sa pagfillup ng email, eh nagamit na daw yung email ko. Kailangan ba tuwing kukuha o magpaparenew bago ang email address mo?!?

  16. bakit hindi po ako makakuha ng reference number for renewal? nakailang beses na din po akong nag signed up pero hindi po nag poproceed sa second step which is pag fill up ng form to proceed in getting the reference number. ano pong gagawin ko? thank you po.

  17. good am, tanong ko lang po. hindi ko po kasi maverify yung account ko sa NBI, hindi po ako makapag renew kasi puro sign up lang po ako. naka ilang account na po ako then di naman nag puproceed sa 2 step which is to fill up ng form for renew at makakuha ng reference number para sa payment. puro “your email is already taken” po ang lumalabas.

  21. Hi Goodmorning.. Just wanted to ask paano po kung di po ako nakarating sa scheduled appointment ko? (which is January 6, 2016) Pero ang nakalagay po dun sa payment ko sa bayad center is valid until/deadline is on January 20,2016 pa po? Makukuha ko pa po ba clearance ko? or valid pa din po kaya yun?

  27. Done using my 7 all emails, still once i go to verification “invalid email and address”, how can I go on sign up again and again. My emails are all used on it!
    Still I’m not yet registered!

  33. pwede po ba akong mag walk in lang Sa nbi selected site ko without the printed clearance?Hindi ko kasi nabayaran agad yung process fee ko.I have the reference #s.at duon na mismo magbayad?

  37. Hi! Thanks for this guide! Really useful. By the way, I would like to ask if I can claim my new NBI clearance with my previous NBI copy(personal copy but expired) paired with my PhilHealth id?

  38. Hi Ma’am, magrerenew po sana ako ng nbi ko online. Tanong ko po sana kung makukuha ko agad if mag online application ako, kasi noon pinabalik pa ako everytime na kukuha ako kasi may kapangalan daw. Pero dahil renewal di po ba dapat verified na yun? Sa Tarlac pa kasi ako kumukuha, from pampanga po ako. Hope to hear from you soon.

  53. Good Morning po. I also applied for NBI Clearance online recently and I have already paid it at LBC. After my payment the next day, I checked my Email and I received a confirmation which stated that I have successfully paid the amount. However, when I checked the NBI Clearance Online TRANSACTION PAGE, I can’t find the “Confirmation Payment” link. Only the “Payment Instruction” and “Cancel” links are shown.

Please help me. Thank You!

  59. Hi Admin,
    Please help me. I’m currently working and living in Dubai for almost 2 years now. Kailangan ko po kasi yung NBI clearance ko for visa related purposes. I went to Philippine Consulate dito sa Dubai to get necessarry documents so my mother can process my NBI in my behalf. Meron po akong Special Power of Attorney at kinuha din po nila ang finger print ko manually using the blue form where all my details na din po. Pati na din yung passport copy ko. I followed all the necessary steps po. Ang sabi sa Consulate ipadala ko na po sa Philippines and my representative (which is my mom) can obtain the NBI for me. But the thing is when she went to the NBI office located in Cebu kasi taga doon po ako. They denied her and sabi nila ay sa Manila daw po dapat kunin ang NBI ko since I’m an OFW and if my mother want daw po they can process that application but they are asking for 3 thousand pesos from her which is a clear red tape. They even told my mom na it takes 10 working days pa daw before they can release my NBI if we push through with what they said. So admin nalilito na po ako kung paano ko po makukuha ang NBI ko. I have all my documents but it seems like they are of no used because of this corrupt officials wanting to milk money from OFW like me. Please help me po. Thank you and God bless po.

Can someone enlighten me with this because I badly need to have my NBI but it turned out that I can’t continue signing up since I need to put my middle name. Thanks!

    justification seemed to be on the web the simplest thing to bear in mind

    You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also outlined out the entire thing without having
    side effect , other people could take a signal.

    Will probably be again to get more. Thank you

Hi. gusto ko lang malinawan, kasi nag pa sched ako ng appointment kanina. mayron bang update or binago sa site? kasi wala na po yung payment option na sa cashier or sa nbi na mismo, ang meron na lang ay ung bank, bank online, mobile or bayad center. then kailangan magbayad na nga muna before maprint ang application form. hindi na pwede na iconfirm and input na lang ung ref#.

    1. Hi Razz, if you want to pay at the NBI cashier, just select any of the 4 payment options and simulate the initial selection process with them. What you need to have lagkasi is a reference number that you could bring to the NBI cashier so you could process your payment. 🙂

  121. I already paid to accredited bayad center LBC and now i need to confirm my payment online but when i log in and click the transaction icon there’s no response and cannot open the transaction page. How can i confirm my payment my schedule for my NBI is on monday June 29, 2015 am. Hope to hear from you very soon.. thank you

  122. Pano pag kakakuha lang NBI Clearance tas nawala agad? Pwede ba agad iparelease ulit yun or bayad muna bago release or simula sa simula nanaman?

    Kahit sino pwede mag reply.

    1. Mag online register ka diba. Tas punta ka agad sa NBI Office. Bayad na lang yun tas checheck kung may hit ka. Pag may hit, 1 week balikan mo. Ok na yun

  125. hi. po tanong ko lang po kung paano ko papalitan ung sa purpose po ng pagkuha ko. kasi una ko na filled out local lang tapos papalitan ko po sana ng for abroad. ayaw na po mag open ng link para po makakuha ako ng reference no. for payment na bago. ano po kaya pwede ko gawin? salamat. please reply asap.

  126. I applied via online for my foreign husband, there was nothing mentioned that they can renew only in main office……….. Hope u can provide some guidelines for this as well……. Payment forfeited? …..etc…..

  129. Asking questions are actually fastidious thing if you are not understanding something
    totally, however this paragraph presents pleasant
    understanding even.

    1. Hi jam. Indicate Purpose-ABROAD, and depending on where you are going and its purpose, choose from the list. Put travel abroad if you are just processing for your passport just in case you plan to go abroad in the future.

  131. hello! last time ako nag nbi clearance is nung 1994 pa for abroad purpose. then ngayun mag abroad ulit ako, renew ba ito or new application na?
    also di ko na makita yung nbi clearance ko na luma.

    thanks

  132. Hi! I just paid for my online application today. I thought it would take more than a day for the transaction to reflect on the online application, so I scheduled my appointment on June 18 instead of June 17. Can I proceed to the branch of my choice tomorrow (June 17), even though my appointment is still on the 18th?

  134. Hi! I just want clarify if your system doesn’t accept names with Ñ. You see, my surname has an Ñ and everytime I save this information on the online form, it changes to N. Is that okay? I’m a bit lost here. I hope you answer my querie. Thank you.

  135. Hello! Ask ko lang kung may grace period sa pagkuha ng nbi clearance? May hit kasi ako so dapat maclaim ko na siya kahapon, 06/15. Pwede ko pa rin ba siya makuha this week?

  136. Dear NBI Admin,

    Good Morning. I already sign-up and paid my transaction in LBC, this morning. And I am also schedule today, june 16 (Am). When I tried to log-in I cannot access the website, “Invalid Credentials” is appearing. I also tried to click the forgot password but there is no response. Please advise instructions, how to fix this problem. Thank you in advance for the help.

  137. To NBI,

    I am very hesitant about taking the e-payment. So I do not want to do online registration.

    Can i go to your office instead, for NBI clearance?

    Thanks and more power,
    Berna

    1. Hi Berna, unfortunately, you really have to go with the Online registration method. Else, dun ka pa pipila sa NBI mismo para maka online. But, you can pay naman sa NBI mismo. Required lang talaga na online ang prcoess ng filling up ng forms.

  140. May I just say what a comfort to uncover somebody who actually understands what
    they’re discussing on the web. You actually realize how to bring an issue
    to light and make it important. A lot more people must check this out
    and understand this side of your story. I can’t believe you’re not more
    popular because you definitely have the gift.

  142. What i do not understood is in truth how you
    are not actually a lot more smartly-appreciated than you may be now.
    You are very intelligent. You understand therefore
    considerably when it comes to this topic, produced me in my opinion consider it from numerous numerous angles.

  143. Hi. Why cant i access my account? It says Invalid credentials even when im sure that i entered my right email and password? And even on the forget password, it says invalid credential when i entered my email. How can i print my application form? I already settled my payment. My appointment is on june 15, 2015 AM.

    1. Regarding my message earlier, I tried signing up again using the same email, and it worked. It lead to me the page where I’m supposed to enter information about me. How is that possible? I thought one email one applicant only? I know that if i continue on making another application it would have a different reference number so i stopped. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

  145. magnificent post, very informative. I’m wondering why the opposite specialists of this sector do not notice this.
    You must proceed your writing. I’m confident, you have a great readers’ base
    already!

  146. Dear Admin,I already paid for the payment, pero ng iopen ko na my personal page, , why still ” apply for clearance and EDIT but before ako magbayad nakikita ko ang status of my application is under transaction sa right side..and nakikita ko rin na still pending..Kindly please help . i need this for my nearly appointment.. thanks for your soonest reply

    1. Hi Marjorie, you will get your reference number once you have selected your preferred payment method. After that, check your Transaction page to check your Reference Code. You will also get this when you select the payment method.

  148. I would like to pay at nbi cashier but there is no option for nbi cashier on their website. There is only banks otc, banks online, mobile, and bayad center. Hindi na ba pwede sa nbi cashier?

  149. Hey! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a collection of volunteers and starting a new
    project in a community in the same niche. Your blog provided us beneficial information to
    work on. You have done a outstanding job!

  152. hi admin, ask ko lng sana kung ano b maganda gawin, nawala ko kc ung resibo ko for claim. mag apply uli ng bago o inform ko ang nbi n nawala ung resibo ko for further instructions?…
    thanks!

  153. Hi. I keep on trying to register online since yesterday. I cant move on to the next procedure after clicking in “I Agree” button. It says “your email address has been taken”. What does that mean? Do I have to create a new email address just for this. Hoping for your prompt response on this. Thank you.

    1. It might mean that there is already an NBI Clearance online account registered under your e-mail address. Are you sure that this is your first time to create an account?

      If the problem still persists, you might want to create a new email add for this purpose.

  157. You could certainly see your enthusiasm in the work you
    write. The world hopes for more passionate writers such as you who are not
    afraid to say how they believe. Always follow your
    heart.

  158. itatanong ko lang po kung pwede pa mkuha ung nbi clearance ko kasi hindi po ako nkapunta sa schedule na pnili ko sa online application pero bayad na po yun

  160. Online applicant po ako. 06/04 yung pagclaim ko. Kaso yung paper na may stamp nung claim date nawala. Anu pung dapat gawin para maclaim ko yung nbi clearance ko?

  162. Online applicant po ako. 06/04 yung pagclaim ko. Kaso yung paper na may stamp nung laim date nawala. Anu pung dapat gawin para maclaim ko yung nbi clearance ko?

    1. Hi Andrea, usually, being hit is not just the reason for delayed releasing NBI clearance. There are times the NBI system is down that deleys the releasing. But best of luck for you. 🙂

  164. I transferred the fund alrady via BDO Online and was given a Paycode/Fund Transfer code. However, pag login ko uli sa NBI to Confirm Payment, Exprired na daw reference number ko. Walang confirm Payment link din.What to do with that po? sayang 140PHP kase I used that reference number to pay 🙁

  165. i already gone to NBI i have paid already.. the personnel said june 19 2015 to come back…. is it okay if i accidentally deleted my transaction with my reference number was gone?

  167. hi po..ask ko lang if pwede ako mag apply ng 2 nbi clearance, one for local employment and one for abroad, i gonna use the option for abroad for passport requirements..

    1. Hi Rox. You can log-on to your old account and then select the Renew option. But if you don’t have an online account yet, yes, you have to. 🙂

      2. Admin, hindi ako nakapunta sa scheduled date. Nakabayad na po ako. Pwedeng magappear dun anytime? Walang malinaw na instructions eh :3 Please help!

      3. just wondering on how will this work for us ( people who are working/living in abroad) i have read the we still have to register online – is this mandatory ? 2, and there is the scheduling part – do we still have to do this for our representative ?, 3. how long ( waiting period) for us to wait before the RENEW NBI Clearance to be release ?

  172. Hi, i’m planning to get an NBI clearance for employment purposes. I used to have one before but it was under my maiden name. Should I choose “New” application or “Renewal”? I’m going to be getting one under my married name already.

    1. Hi Val. We’re not yet familiar on how you could update your records, but there’s got to be a starting point so all of your documents will be synced. 🙂

  173. hello po . ahmm nali2to poh akoh sa payment .. kc nkalagay poh dun ” banks over the counter , banks online , mobile payment , at bayad center .. eh wala poh akoh nun ii anuh poh ba ga2win koh tnx poh

    1. Hi John, banks over the counter means pupunta ka sa bangko, tapos magdedeposit ka, same sa bayad center. Pero if you are confused, after getting the reference number, pwede ka naman magbayad sa NBI Cashier.

  176. Hello for local employment po yung purpose, sa NBI Sta.ROsa LAguna branch po .. Yun nga wla naman OR na binigay ang binigay lan is just a piece of paper with reference number w/ stamp na paid and date of release ng clearance, wla naman din po nakalagay if na hit ako. Pano po kaya toh

  177. Nag apply ako knna dun mga hapon n, nakapag biometrics n ko and picture pero sa june 10 p irerelease ung nbi ko, wla nman nkalagay kung na hit ako or what. Tapos 185 siningil nila wla resibo n bingay they only give me a piece of paper n nkasulat ung ref number tapos may stamp ng paid

    1. Hi Kristine, may i know what is your Purpose of application, and what’s the NBI branch? We can’t identify any purpose with the cost of P185 if paid at the NBI cashier. It’s just unusual since you should receive an Official Receipt with stamp Paid as well as the date of release of your NBI clearance.

  178. hi ask ko lang po kukuha ako sanan ng nbi clearnce kaso nga lang na HIT ako taz ung flight ko pa macau is june 4 2015 na . makaka habol pa ba ung nbi clearnce ko ? please comment po . tnx 🙂

    1. Hi Cyril, I hope you could read my reply now. Actually, you could follow-up your NBI Clearance status with them to make sure that you won’t have any problems. Before June 4, if you are just near the NBI branch, you may try to claim your NBI clearance. Being HIT don’t just mean you have similar name with other person, but usually just because the NBI system is down.

  179. Hi. can I still get my nbi clearance kahit na lumagpas na ako sa scheduled date ng pagkuha? I’ve read your previous comment na pwedeng pumunta kahit anong araw as long as bayad ka na? Correct me if I’m wrong. Thanks.

    1. Hi Landel. There’s no problem if you can’t come to your date of appointment. A lot of applicants doesn’t follow the appointment system that results to long lines. Just make sure that you bring all the requirements.

  181. Hi po. Nationwide na po ba ang online registration? Nag try akong mag register online pero lahat ng Email address na nilalagay ko ay “taken” na daw. I’ve been using the email addresses for years and I haven’t registered yet. May solution po ba?

    1. Hi Gail, some applicants has the same issue like yours, very specific for this day. There seems to be a problem with the NBI database. We’ve checked with the NBI website for announcements but there is none regarding this problem. You may have to try again later if the problem still persists. We also tried to log-in, but we are able to sign-in. You may try the Forgot password link and then check your email inbox for your credentials.

  182. Hi. I just wanted to ask paano po masosolve yung sa email na ilalagay? I’ve tried a lot of emails na kaso laging nalabas ay “The E-mail Address has been taken”. Ano po ang pwedeng gawin? Please answer po? Thank you!

    1. Hi Arriannce, we assume you have registered an email address with gmail or yahoo / others right? Make sure that when you log-in to the NBI website, you use an email address that is already activated or you have completely registered. By that, NBI website will recognize it as unique and is not yet taken by anyone esle. 🙂

        1. Hi Edgar, there must have been issues with the NBI system. You may try again your Email address or the Forgot password link. And if the problem still persists, if you haven’t paid yet, you can try creating a new account. But this time, make sure you have memorized or written down your log-in details.:)

  183. Hi sir! Ask ko lang ok lang ba yun kase 2 accounts ung nagawa ko for nbi onlime pero different email address ,and yung isa lang naman nagamit ko para magpa appointment sa monday.wla bang mggng problem dun? I actually change the info dun sa isang email add

  184. hi sir, ask ko lng po kung pede ko pa ba makuha ang nbi ko o expired na po ba sya para marelease at kelangan ko na po ba magrenew?… release date nya po kasi ay feb.16, nakalimutan ko na po kasi makuha dahil umatend po ako ng training out of town. kauwi ko lng po last week… sana po masagot noy po ako, thanks!

    1. Hi william, we believe your NBI clearanee is still claimable. Ipiprint na lang sya. just make sure you still have your receipt and the reference number and a valid ID as well. 🙂

  185. Hello, Just a question. How an I change my Appointment. Everything is paid through online application and I have my appointment already, but I need to change if for some reason. Thanks a lot.

    1. Hi Mausi, yes, you could change your appointment. You could actually come to your preferred NBI branch even if its not your schedule. That’s the flaw of the NBI system that usually results to long lines.

      1. Oh Thanks a lot for that info. I have my appointment on the 16th of June, and I think I will show up earlier, like first week of that month. Thanks a lot again.

  186. sir.nagapply nko dti ng nbi clearance pero since 1 month po bago ko makuha.hndi ko na po kinuha kc natpos na ung purpose ng nbi clearance ko.hndi ko na kailangan tska malayo po kc bahay nmin sa office ng nbi.ngaun hndi ko po alam ang old nbi id number ko na required for renewal.pano po kaya un?

    1. Hi, Ross, you could Apply for New NBI clearance instead if you don’t have your previous NBI clearance number. Before the online application kasi, nung manual pa, parang laging New NBI applicants lahat ng nagpupunta sa NBI, so it’s okay.

    1. Hi, good afternoon from the Philippines Nors. Regarding your query, I’ve reviewed our articles and realized we haven’t included the NBI Clearance Application process for applicants abroad. We hope to come up with that guide to consolidate with our current guides. But, I’ve researched on the government websites abroad and you could actually process your clearance while abroad.
      Here’s the link from the Philippine Consulate in Los Angeles. I believe it would be just the same process as in Italy. I hope this could answer your questions. Thank you and regards 🙂
      http://www.philippineconsulatela.org/NBI_Clearance.htm
      By the way, before you proceed on processing your NBI clearance, you could inquire at the Philippine Consulate in Italy for further assistance. 🙂

  190. Good day! I have registered this morning for my NBI clearance application. I chose May 27, 2015-AM for my schedule. Payment was done via LBC this afternoon. Then I was logging in at their website now to confirm my payment but I cannot log in. “Invalid Credentials” appear when I enter my email address and password. “Forgot Password” isn’t functioning also. What shall I do now? 🙁

    1. Hi Mariel, there are a lot of applicants coming to us with the same concern as yours. Kindly check your email inbox or spam folder for your credentials when you have clicked the Forgot Password link. Then try logging in again. 🙂

      1. Hi Admin!

        I clicked on the Forgot Password option multiple times last night and this morning. I didn’t receive anything in my e-mail. I checked all folders including the Spam folder. None. Any ideas on how to fix this? I need my NBI Clearance soon for work. 🙁

        Thanks so much!

        1. Hi Janel, there must have been issues with the NBI system. You may try again your Email address or the Forgot password link. And if the problem still persists, if you haven’t paid yet, you can try creating a new account. But this time, make sure you have memorized or written down your log-in details.:)

  193. Hi po! Nag-register po kasi ako online last Thursday. Ang sinelect ko po para sa appointment is sa Bulacan sa Malolos. Nakapagbayad narin po ko sa LBC. Eh nagkaproblema po sa Malolos nung sinelect kong appointment date at grabe sa pilahan. Valid parin po ba payment ko kahit sa Marilao ko nalang po ituloy? Thanks po 🙂

  194. Thank you very much for this article. I really appreciate your time and effort invested in making such articles to address to the dilemmas of our fellowmen. I will totally share this one.

  195. andaming mga nagtatanong dun sa isang website kung ano ano. parang walang nakakaalam. Buti na lang may nagrefer ng link na to. Sa wakas, natapos din ako. UMID at passport pa…sana meron na din DFA guide…wait ko…salamat…

    1. Actually, as far as I know, you need to renew lang. Pero, you dont have an email account and password and reference number before when you applied.
      So to better answer your question, much better if you fill up the forms again and then there are options afterwards between new and renew applicants. hope this helps.

  197. Jade, same case with me, but i heard from my friend na marami / mahaba pa din ang pila kapag sa branch mismo. but then, makakatipid ka ng worth P40 kung pipila ka sa halip na magbayad ka sa labas. yung reference code mo lang ang kailangan at di mo na klangan pumili ng method. nasa transaction page mo yung reference code mo.

    1. I agree with you Carren. mahaba ang pila pag sa branch mismo. Pero, based on my experience, I should have read this article. http://www.aplikante.info/nbi-clearance-complete-payment-guide/#comment-55.
      Pinakita nila dito yung differences ng babayaran between the different payment options. E BPI ang meron ako. From P115, naging P190 binayaran ko? sayang ang pera. That time, mahaba din yung ipinila ko sa BPI branch malapit sa office.
      ——– So to the people who are asking, NBI Cashier talaga., Kung pipila din lang naman kayo, yung andun na kayo mismo sa NBI Branch.sayang ang time. Pero kayo pa rin ang bahala.

  198. hi. i wonder if paano kung sa NBI mismo magbabayad? Do i need to proceed with the online / bank / bayad center? wala kasing ta / link para sa main office payment?
