How to Get OEC or Balik-Manggagawa Online

| ,

Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) know that while on vacation they need to secure an exit clearance or Overseas Employment Certificate (OEC) Balik-Manggagawa (BM) in order to get back in their company abroad.


Getting OEC Balik-Manggagawa in the POEA takes time, especially if you’re residing in the province. I still remember when I was working in Abu Dhabi, when the vacation time comes I am always searching for an easy way to get OEC, like an online system where I can easily get my OEC in front of my computer, but during that time there’s no available online system yet.

Fortunately, POEA recently announce the BM Online website where OFW returning to the same employer and jobsite can easily get OEC online, while OFW returning to different employer or no records found on the system, needs to set an appointment before going to any POEA offices.
