Application Process

1. Send a completed application package to PNB Tokyo or Nagoya together with supporting documents.
2. Upon receipt of complete application package, a formal appraisal and credit investigation report will be requested from PNB Head Office to check the credit worthiness of applicant. Analysis will be conducted in accordance to existing credit standards, taking into consideration the following: Applicant’s character, capacity to pay, tenure of residence and employment.
3. The approval evaluation process will take approximately 15-20 days upon receipt of the complete documentary requirements and will be contingent upon receipt of acceptable appraisal figures on the proposed property. Decision will be conveyed to the application in writing.
4. Upon final approval, loan documentation will be prepared. Collection of JPY 25,000 application fee will be made upon acceptance/conformity of the Facility Letter. Loan related documents will be signed by the borrower in Japan. This will require notarization by the Philippine Embassy in Japan. If borrower is a non-Filipino, all loan documents should be notarized first by a Japanese Notary Public then authenticated by the Gaimusho, and by the Philippine Embassy.
5. Mortgage Redemption Insurance will be secured based on the approved loan amount and fire insurance coverage based on the improvement or appraised value/contract price.
6. Original copy of TCT/CCT under borrower’s name, free and clean from any lien and encumbrance, fully signed pertinent documents from the seller/developer, and annotated registration of Real-estate Mortgage (REM) from the Registry of Deeds must be on hand prior to loan release to owner/seller. Original collateral documents will be safekept at Head Office and copies will be supplied to PNB Japan.
• For accredited developers, upon borrower’s conformity, release of loan proceeds will be allowed upon execution of Deed of Undertaking by the developer.



The entire process, including appraisal, filing, completion of documents and loan release is expected to take approximately three (3) months, more or less. It all depends on the completeness of the documents and the swiftness of the seller/developer to transfer the ownership of the title to the borrower's name. The loan approval is valid for 180 days or 6 months. Beyond 6 months, the bank needs to reevaluate the application.




Arrangement fee of 1% of loan amount equivalent in JPY or JPY 25,000 (whichever is higher) will be charged upon loan release




Thereafter, schedule of amortization/repayments and other pertinent documents will be sent to the borrower right after the release of the loan.
