Why You Must Use a POEA Accredited Agency for POEA Jobs New Zealand

The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) exists to protect Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). If you’re going abroad for work, especially in a skilled or caregiving role, using a POEA-accredited agency is not optional — it’s mandatory for legal deployment.

Risks of Unlicensed Recruiters:

  1. Fake job offers
  2. Upfront fees with no job guarantee
  3. No OEC (Overseas Employment Certificate)
  4. Without pre-departure seminar or insurance
  5. No legal recourse if things go wrong

Benefits of POEA-Accredited Agencies:

  1. Legally authorized by the Philippine government
  2. Required to follow POEA rules on fees and contracts
  3. Provide pre-employment orientation seminars (POS)
  4. Process your OEC and deployment documents
  5. Registered in the DMW Portal — verifiable by anyone

Pro Tip: Always verify an agency on DMW, POEA  before giving them money or documents.

Is DMW Approval Needed for POEA Jobs New Zealand?

Yes — if you’re going as an OFW through a recruitment agency.

However, there are two pathways to work in New Zealand:

PathwayPOEA Required?Best For
Recruitment via AgencyYesCaregivers, nurses, entry-level workers
Direct Skilled MigrationNoProfessionals with job offers or points-based visas

When POEA is Required:

  1. You’re hired by a Philippine agency
  2. You need an OEC for re-entry to the Philippines
  3. You’re applying for jobs in caregiving, healthcare, or construction

When POEA is NOT Required:

  1. You’re on a Working Holiday Visa (for ages 18–30)
  2. You applied directly to a New Zealand employer
  3. You’re migrating under the Skilled Migrant Category (SMC)

Bottom line: If an agency is handling your job placement, it must be POEA-accredited.

FAQ Part 1: POEA Jobs New Zealand

Can I apply for work in New Zealand from the Philippines? Yes. The safest way is through a POEA-accredited agency. These agencies handle the entire application, interview, and visa process. You can also apply directly to New Zealand employers online, but you must secure a job offer before applying for a visa.

How to get a job offer from New Zealand employers? To get a job offer, you can:

  1. Apply through a POEA-accredited agency which has job orders from NZ employers.

  1. Healthcare: nurses, caregivers, and medical technicians.
