POEA or Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) eRegistration

Filipinos who work abroad or overseas are referred to as Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). Because of their unselfish commitment to providing a better life for their family, they are regarded as modern-day heroes, and the remittances they bring home to the Philippines have significantly boosted the country’s economy.

Studies indicate that remittances from overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) contribute significantly to the Philippine economy, with some estimates putting the figure at 10% of the nation’s GDP (GNP). While working in various nations, overseas Filipino workers share a variety of experiences. Depending on the type of contract they have signed, they may remain for a few months or even years. Due to the Philippines’ extreme poverty and dearth of employment possibilities, most of them leave the nation.

You must create an account on the POEA online Portal eRegistration website if you’re a Filipino who wants to work overseas. We outline the procedures for registering with POEA in this page. We also provide instructions, prerequisites, and responses to frequently asked questions concerning the process.
