If you are applying for British citizenship - you can use NCS and they will send a copy of your passport instead of original (which will be given back to you).
If you are applying for British passport - you will have to send the original.

What is the reason by the way?

thank you indeed. but i really don`t want to use the NCS, I just want to certified all my documents and send it to the Home office myself.
UKBA website state that:
You may apply directly without using the nationality checking service or a representative. You must submit either original documents, or a fully certified photocopy of your documents.

In this case go to a lawyer or accountant and get photocopies certified (you'll find that NCS is usually cheaper
).
