National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Clearance is now multi-purpose. This means, one NBI clearance can be used for whatever legal purpose, be it for local or overseas employment, travel abroad or for applying for a gun license.
The NBI has already started issuing the multi-purpose clearance last October 2, 2017, for only P115 pesos.

What if there is a "hit"?
A "hit" appears when a person's record has a namesake or pending criminal case.
If applicants name is a hit, the NBI will do the investigation on their database to know if the applicant has a pending case. This will take four days.
According to Aoanan, applicants for NBI multipurpose clearance will undergo verification process with the following parameters; date of birth, address and parents address.
If the applicant has a case, pending or acquited, a court clearance is needed to be submitted in NBI.
