BALIK-MANGGAGAWA PROCESSING IN THE UAE

New POLO-OWWA Office - location map


This refers to the various email received by POLO and being circulated inquiring the new requirements of the Philippine Overseas Labor Office (POLO) for our departing OFWs here in the UAE for their vacation leave to the Philippines.


Please take note that our requirements for OFWs who are applying for Balik-Manggagawa/OWWA and Pag-Ibig are as follows:

(Prior OFW departure in the UAE)

1) Personal appearance of the OFW/applicant strictly required;
2) Original passport
3) Fees: Aed 92 -OWWA / Aed 10- OEC/ Aed 10 -Pag-ibig
4) *For Household Service Worker (Housemaid) must provide Immigration Contract to be verified by POLO at Aed 40.00 with the standard salary of AED 1,500.0 or & $400.00


However, those OFWs who left UAE and FAILED to secure BM-OEC/OWWA & Pag-Ibig at POLOs they will proceed to their nearest POEA regional/satellite offices nationwide or at the Central Office in Ortigas. It is POEA Philippines who is requiring to submit the below mentioned documents to those applicants/OFWs who left the Philippines with UNDOCUMENTED STATUS ---- meaning departed the Philippines on VISIT VISA and after sometime found job/employment in the UAE.

We encourage all OFWs in UAE to secure their Balik-Manggagawa at POLO Dubai office in order to avoid the below mentioned POEA processing considering that our vacationing workers has limited time to stay in the Philippines.

For information dissemination and guidance.

    1. Yes. But if you are falling under the Multiple Travel Exit Clearance category, then, you don't need to process the same thing within one year.

      Multiple Travel Exit Clearance (MTEC) is defined as a single issuance of travel exit clearance, good for at least three exits within the validity period of the existing contract of the worker whose contract with the same employer has a duration of not less than 12 months from the date of application for travel exit clearance.

      There are three types of workers who can apply for MTEC, namely workers whose nature of work allows multiple exits from the job site and re-entry into the Philippines at least three times a year; Filipino cabin crew and flight attendants of commercial aircrafts; and other workers whose employment provides frequent scheduled vacations or rotational leave.

      You can apply for this type of exit clearance either thru our POLO Office or at POEA.

      Maraming salamat po.
