If you really have to turn NFC off, use NfcAdapter.disable();.

However, you won't be able to use disable() API if your app is not system application which is build together with the platform.

Alternatively, you may show a notice (a dialog?) to the user and ask her if she wants to turn off the NFC. If user agrees, you can redirect her to global Settings UI using following Intent:

startActivity(new Intent("android.settings.NFC_SETTINGS"));
