How do I become a Member of AFPMBAI?
Personnel from the AFP, BFP, BJMP, and PCG are automatic Members of the Association because of their MBAI Protek basic insurance policy upon entry to the service.

Hence, it is important to update your membership information with AFPMBAI, particularly if you change your civil status.

What is MBAI Protek Basic Insurance?
MBAI Protek is the affordable basic membership insurance policy of AFPMBAI for the AFP, PNP, BFP, BJMP, and PCG. The plan has high insurance coverage, dismemberment and disability benefits, and killed-in-action (KIA) benefits. As required by law, half (50%) of the monthly contributions goes to the Member’s Equity Fund account and earns interest per year, withdrawable upon retirement or separation from the service.
What is a Permanent Insurance Policy?
A permanent insurance policy earns guaranteed cash values and has a maturity benefit equal to the face amount at the end of the policy. If you still do not have a plan with us, we recommend our 5-pay College Education Plan, 10-pay Saver’s Protection Plus, or our limited pay whole life plans.
Can I ask for an Estimated Premium Computation for all insurance coverages?
Yes, have your membership validated first in order for the Membership Section to compute an estimate for you.
What is the status of my Insurance Application?
If your Insurance Application’s requirements are complete, it will be processed by Underwriting at AFPMBAI’s Head Office in Quezon City where the Association’s medical director is reporting. On the other hand, if it has incomplete information, it will be returned to you through the Insurance Representative who handled your application.
What is this ‘MBAI DUES’, ‘MBAI PREM’, ‘MBAI P’, ‘AFP MBA P’, ‘MBAI PREMIUM’ deduction code in my payslip?
This deduction refers to your basic membership insurance policy, which is an automatic and mandatory deduction for AFP, BFP, BJMP, and PCG personnel from the time they enter the service.
For the AFP, ‘MBAI DUES’ or ‘MBAI PREM’ is equivalent to 0.5% of base pay monthly contribution, while ‘MBAI DUES ADDL’ is equivalent to 1.0% of base pay. You are already upgraded to 1.5% MBAI PROTEK if you have these two deduction codes in your payslip.
For the BFP, BJMP, and PCG personnel, there is an automatic 1.5% of base pay monthly contribution, and the same applies to PNP personnel enrolled in this program.
What is this “SGTI” deduction on my payslip?
This refers to Special Group Term Insurance with a ₱16,000 death benefit collected by AFPMBAI on behalf of the national government. This group insurance coverage was effected by Presidential Decree No. 352 in 1973. The ₱12.00 cost of insurance is shared equally between the government and AFP personnel, thus, the ₱6.00 payslip deduction.
The AFPMBAI Branch Office is far from my place of work, how can I verify my insurance and loan accounts online?
Please send a private message to Customer Service with your full name, branch of service, serial/badge number, and birthday via Facebook Messenger (@afpmbaiofficial) so that we can verify your accounts with us. We welcome any inquiry or service request from you.
Why am I still being deducted even if my policy has matured?
We apologize for the continued deductions as we are also dependent on your Finance Center when it comes to deductions. It normally takes 2-3 months for your Finance Center to stop the deductions because your payslips are prepared in advance.
