Hi there,

I already have the NBI Clearance/Transcript of Records/Diploma with Red Ribbon and duly authenticated by the Qatar Embassy in the Philippines. Do I still need to go to Phil. Consulate here in Qatar to have the stamp?

Thanks

you'll get your renewed NBI in no time.

My sister is also the one doing my paperworks back home and really thankful we have family who help us out.

@ Tatess, thanks for the help. We just sent the pertinent docs via post. Once my sister sorted out my NBI, she will go to DHL gensan for assistance of that authentication. DHL is autorized courier service for authentication at DFA manila. It will take time accordingly like 1 week. It's fine! Once it's sorted, my sister will send it back here - and then the rest will follow.

@alfred - thanks!

yeah right! they are preparing for what??? It takes me an hours (take note with S) just to keep calling them and still no answers! Tsk!!! Pati ba naman d2???

2.Authentication/Red Ribbon at the DFA ,Manila or DFA office in your place.

a. orig. NBI

B. authorization letter from you

PROCESSING TIME IS 1 WEEK .

And send to Qatar.....

3. Phil Embassy, Qatar-authentication .It will take an hour or two just for that signature and stamp.QR 100 cash payment.

OMG!

why is it so complicated just to get one????

Thanks a lot! This is for clarification and tell me if i am correct:

I have one original copy of my expired NBI clearance (Nov.12, 08). So as you said, I don't need to go to Phil. Embassy but instead I will send my clearance to Phils. along with my authorization letter and ID's. (My sister will process it) If my NBI clearance will be released by then, of course my sister will send it back to me here in Doha. Right after that - what's next???? Do I have to give it direct to my new company or do I need to do something with it? I am getting pissed off with this one E**** as they will not answer my call.

Please, need your help. I have read a lot of instructions and it only leads me to confusion. Please send me your mobile numbers on private message, I'd rather call you.

Thanks a lot!

If you are going to renew an expired NBI no need to go to the Phli Embassy and pay QR100 just for a finger print form .

Read the link below to guide you on how to do it right.

requirements are passport and photos only plus you have to fill up that nbi clearance application form...remember don't forget to ask your receipt

By tomultra• 27 Dec 2009 18:15

one hundred riyals lang po, after that you have to send the completed form to your relative in the philippines by registered mail or dhl. let him/her process this in your behalf...of course you need authorization on that...once nbi clearance is granted, your relative can send it back to you by same means and you can go back again to philippine embassy and pay another 100 riyals for the authentication/red ribbon.

note: see to it you have to bring a hand washing soap to clean your hands after the finger printing, alang sabon sa embassy noong ako'y pumunta doon
