Dear Ms. Villaflor:

Greetings from the Commission on Filipinos Overseas!

Thank you for your eFOI request regarding the number of employed OFW teachers by country. 
 
However, the CFO’s primary clientele are the Filipino emigrants who will permanently live in other countries.  On the other hand, OFWs or temporary migrants are required to register with and obtain their Overseas Employment Certificates (OECs) from the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA).

We regret that we are unable to provide the information requested since migrant workers or OFWs are not required to register with the CFO before their departure from the Philippines.

The link below that contains information about OFWs and other professions by skill and by country might help you:

For questions or clarifications, you may contact the CFO’s Policy, Planning and Research Division at 552-4763.

Thank you and best regards.


Respectfully,


COMMISSION ON FILIPINOS OVERSEAS
