The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has told future corps members that they can’t be called for national service unless they get approval from the National Electronic Registration Database (NERD).
The organization shared this message on Monday through a public post on their official X page.
They are asking hopeful members to finish the check process soon to prevent any hold–ups when they are called up.
According to the NYSC, NERD clearance is now a mandatory requirement for all prospective corps members seeking participation in the national service programme.
“This is to inform PCMs (Prospective Corps Members) that without NERD clearance, no NYSC. Get your NERD clearance early. Avoid delays in your mobilisation,” the scheme stated.
Reinforcing the directive, the NYSC added: “NERD clearance is compulsory for all PCMs. No NERD clearance, No NYSC!!!”
Although the scheme did not provide further details on the clearance process, the directive signals a stricter verification procedure ahead of the mobilisation of the next batch of corps members.
The latest advisory comes shortly after the NYSC announced the mobilisation of prospective corps members for the 2026 Batch ‘B’ service year, urging tertiary institutions and eligible graduates to complete all required documentation before the orientation exercise.
It also follows a recent safety advisory in which the scheme cautioned prospective corps members against travelling to orientation camps at night.
The NYSC advised them to break their journeys where necessary and spend the night in safe locations or designated military and other security formations instead of travelling after dark.
The twin advisories underscore the scheme’s efforts to strengthen both the integrity of its mobilisation process and the safety of prospective corps members amid ongoing security concerns across the country.
With preparations for the next orientation course underway, eligible graduates are expected to complete all registration and verification requirements, including the newly emphasised NERD clearance, before they can be mobilised for national service.
