Within the Department of the Navy, NCIS is the
civilian Federal law enforcement agency uniquely
responsible for investigating felony crime, preventing
terrorism, and protecting secrets for the Navy and
Marine Corps. NCIS defeats threats from across the
foreign intelligence, terrorist, and criminal spectrum
by conducting operations and investigations ashore,
afloat, and in cyberspace, to protect and preserve
the superiority of the DON warfighter.
Keeping communities safe for DON personnel and
their families isn't only up to law enforcement—NCIS
relies on you to provide us with tips on suspected
crime and threats to the DON.
That's why NCIS has launched NCIS Tips, a web
and mobile application that can be used to safely,
discreetly, and anonymously report criminal activity
and force protection threats affecting the Navy and
Marine Corps.
What types of crimes should I report?
You should report criminal activities, including
homicide, rape, sexual assault, child physical and
sexual abuse, burglary and robbery, larceny of
government and personal property, and aggravated
assault. You should also report suspected terrorist,
force protection, and insider threats.
How do I submit a tip using NCIS Tips?
To submit an anonymous tip, you can download the
NCIS Tips application on your smart device, as shown
on the back of this brochure. You can also visit
www.ncis.navy.mil to submit a web-based tip.
What happens when I submit a tip using
NCIS Tips?
When you submit a tip using NCIS Tips, you will
receive a unique tip number and be able to
communicate directly with an NCIS representative.
Your identity will remain anonymous unless you
provide it to NCIS.
How do I report additional information?
You can provide additional information to supplement
your original tip by logging onto NCIS Tips using your
tip number. If you lose your tip number, just submit a
new tip.
Can I still call or go directly to my local
NCIS field office to report a tip?
Yes. To obtain NCIS contact information, go to
