Disclaimer

Important — please read

NBI Clearance Guide is an independent, privately owned information website. We are not the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), and we are not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by the NBI or any agency of the Government of the Republic of the Philippines. The only official NBI Clearance portal is clearance.nbi.gov.ph.

General Information Only

All content on NBI Clearance Guide is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. We write plain-English guides to help people understand the NBI Clearance process. While we work hard to keep our information accurate and up to date, we make no warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, or suitability of the information on this website.

We Do Not Process Applications or Collect Fees

NBI Clearance Guide does not process NBI Clearance applications, book appointments on your behalf, collect government fees, or issue any clearance or official document. We do not act as an agent, fixer, or intermediary. All applications, payments, and releases are handled solely by the NBI through its official channels. Any government fees you pay are paid directly to the NBI or its authorized payment partners — never to us.

Not Legal Advice

Nothing on this website constitutes legal, immigration, or professional advice. For advice about your specific situation — including legal cases, “HIT” records, court documents, or visa requirements — please consult the NBI directly or a qualified professional.

Accuracy and Changes

Government procedures, requirements, fees, and processing times can change at any time and may differ between branches or situations. Figures such as fees (for example, the clearance fee and payment-channel charges) are stated for general guidance and may not reflect the latest official amounts. Always confirm current requirements and fees with the official NBI portal before acting. If you find something on our site that is out of date, please let us know.

Visiting external links is at your own risk.
