POLICE CLEARANCE in CEBU

Hi, Guys! I apologise for taking a long rest from posting. I got busy with my three children. Anyway, I would like to give you an update on my recent task which is to renew my police clearance after two years. I found out that their office has been moved to Camp Sotero Cabahug headquarters of the Cebu City Police Office in Gorordo Avenue. I went to register online like last time but there is no more online appointment available for getting a police clearance in Cebu as of yet. 

I went to Camp Sotero at 8:00 in the morning thinking that it’s already crowdee and has a long queue. When I reached the entrance, the police staff asked me to surrender one of my valid ID before they can let me in. After I handed him my ID, he then instructed me to the area where I could request for the said clearance.

Not far from the entrance, you will see a small tent with chairs and tables places in the area. First step is to log in yoir name and time you arrived. When done, the staff will give you a form to fill in. Submit the form together with the basic requirements. Please see below.

Primary requirements in getting police clearance are photocopy of the following: 

1. PSA Birth Certificate/ Baptismal Certificate/ Valid ID

1. Latest Cedula

1. BARANGAY CLEARANCE

You will then be directed to a door leading to the payment and picture taking. Payment is different for every purpose of getting a police clearance. I paid Php40 plus another Php200. I found out that aside from the clearance, you now have a valid police clearance ID good for 1 year. Isn’t it fantastic? 😂

This is actually my first time to get a police clearance. For those first timers like me, no need to worry. Here are the easy steps on how to apply for police clearance. 

Did you know that you can already apply for police clearance online? It was posted on their website on the 26th of May 2016 that applicants can already fill out a form through their site to get an access number. Take note on the reference number as you will have to present it together with your requirements. No need to print it as long as you have it noted or saved. There are also police interns ready to help you with your online application at their office in case you weren't able to apply online. You just have to pay Php30.

Cebu City Police Office is located at the back of White Gold Club in A. Soriano Street along SM City Cebu. 

After your online application, you may now proceed to Step 2 (cashier). Present all your requirements and pay for certain amount. In my case, I was asked to pay about Php125 for Spousal Visa. I don't know if there's a different fee for any purpose of getting a police clearance. 

On the third step, you will be asked to pay another Php65 for photo capture and biometric. Wait for your name to be called for the releasing of police clearance. Police clearance is valid only for three months.
