MS. ROCHELLE MUNSAYAC


Dear Ms. Munsayac, 

Greetings from the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO)!

This refers to your request dated 07 November 2019 requesting information of OFWs in Batangas City.

We regret, however, 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 CFO’s primary clientele are the 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). The link below that contains information about OFWs and other professions by skill and by country might help you:

http://poea.gov.ph/ofwstat/ofwstat.html

For questions or clarifications, you may contact Ms. Cindy K. San Pedro of the Administrative and Finance Division at (02) 8552-4797 or through email at csanpedro@cfo.gov.ph.

To further improve our services, may we also kindly request for your feedback through this link: https://goo.gl/forms/FeSqdqLNMoNkInCo2 (Policy, Planning and Research Division Client Satisfaction Form). The form is brief and will only take a minute to complete. Thank you very much in advance for your response.


Thank you very much.


Sincerely,


MR. FRANCISCO S. CALINGASAN
FOI Decision Maker
