NBI suspends clearance processing in all areas under MECQ

(NBI PR)

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) today announced the suspension of Clearance Processing in all Areas that were declared by the government as under Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine or MECQ beginning today, Tuesday, August 4 until 18, 2020.

NBI Officer-In-Charge Eric B. Distor said the areas covered by the suspension are National Capital Region (NBI), Bulacan, Rizal, Cavite and Laguna. All Clearance processing and Satellite Offices in the aforementioned areas will be closed for the duration of the quarantine period or MECQ, OIC Distor added.

The NBI supports the action of the national government to put certain areas under MECQ to stem the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and at the same time heed the overwhelming clamor of frontliners for a “timeout”.

The public is, therefore, advised of the cancellation of all clearance transactions during the quarantine period.
