According to the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), applicants who have previously issued NBI clearances (from 2014 onwards) can now renew their NBI clearance online without the need to accomplish a new NBI fingerprint form No. 5, provided that there are no changes to their personal data.
If there has been a change to the applicant’s personal data, applicants may secure and accomplish the Fingerprint Card Form from the Consulate.
This process also applies to Foreign Nationals who previously lived in the Philippines and require an NBI Clearance Certificate.
Applications for NBI Clearance are made in person and by appointment only.
The requirements are:
- Personal Appearance
- Duly accomplished NBI Form (to be obtained and accomplished at the Consulate)
- Two (2) passport size photos with white background
- Valid Passport or ‘Ausweis’ and two photocopies thereof
- Fee of €25,00
The accomplished NBI form duly certified by the Consul should be sent by the applicant himself/herself directly to the National Bureau of Investigation in Manila for processing and the issuance of the clearance.
