NBI clearance is vital for Filipinos, especially those starting careers or traveling abroad due to its cost-effectiveness compared to a passport. However, the surge in demand has led to fake certificates, commonly found in the black market in Manila. As an employer, verify applicants’ NBI clearances to avoid hidden issues, as forgers often use them to mask criminal records. Forging public documents carries severe legal consequences, requiring collective efforts to combat counterfeits. The online verification system is the most reliable method for confirming the authenticity of an NBI clearance.
