THE National Amnesty Commission (NAC) urges former members of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army-National Democratic Front to submit their amnesty applications before the March 13, 2026 deadline.
In an advisory, the commission called on applicants to coordinate with their respective local amnesty boards to facilitate the submission and processing of the applications.
Local amnesty boards have been set up across country, including special sites in Luzon such as Albay, Baguio, Isabela, La Union, Pampanga, Quezon Province, and the National Capital Region based in Quezon City.
In the Visayas, application centers are located in Bacolod, Bohol, Catbalogan, Iloilo, and Tacloban.
Meanwhile, several sites in Mindanao are accepting applications, including in Basilan, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Cotabato, Davao City, Koronadal, Pagadian, and Jolo.
The NAC said applicants are encouraged to file their documents early to ensure they are processed before the deadline.
As of March 6, the NAC has received 12,646 amnesty applications.
The amnesty program aims to provide qualified former rebels the opportunity to reintegrate into mainstream society and support the government’s efforts toward lasting peace and reconciliation.
