VFS Global today announced the launch of the Migrant Workers Office (MWO) Contract Verification Service across three key cities of Saudi Arabia - Riyadh, Dammam, and Jeddah. These new centres bring the Contract verification service closer to home for Filipinos residing in the Kingdom, providing easily accessible and state-of-the-art customer touchpoints.

Developed in partnership with DBP Data Center Inc., the service is designed to streamline the employment contract verification process, offering OFWs a more accessible, efficient, and technology-led experience. The service is expected to support approximately 34,500 applicants annually.

Mr. Jiten Vyas, Chief Commercial Officer and Head of Business Development, VFS Global said, “We are pleased to leverage our network of centres across KSA to bring contract verification services closer to Filipinos residing in the Kingdom. This new offering further strengthens our longstanding relationship with the Philippines, which we have supported through passport and consular services since 2019 across eight countries. We look forward to delivering best-in-class services to applicants at our centres.”

The Contract Verification Centres enable OFWs to conveniently book appointments and make payments online before completing in-person document submission at the centre. Walk-in services are also available for applicants. Once the Migrant Workers Office finalises the verification process, applicants are notified on their registered email addresses to access their OEC and verified contract.

Designed to improve user experience and accessibility, the centres feature extended operating hours, real-time application tracking and secure online payment options. 

This initiative reflects a shared commitment to supporting OFWs through secure, transparent, and reliable service delivery, ensuring that employment contracts meet Philippine government standards and safeguarding worker welfare across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The centres in Riyadh, Dammam, and Jeddah represent the latest expansion of facilities in the region, following centres that opened in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, UAE, earlier this year. Prior to the launch of this service, applicants needed to visit the Migrant Workers Office (MWO) in Riyadh.

VFS Global offers Philippines ePassport Renewal services in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through three centres across the Kingdom. To further enhance accessibility, regularly scheduled Passport on Wheels (POW) services are also conducted in locations without permanent centres, bringing greater convenience to the Filipino community.

In addition, VFS Global provides Consular Services for Filipinos in Saudi Arabia, including Police Clearance, NBI Clearance Endorsement, Notarial & Affidavit, Passport Extension and Travel Documents,  ensuring reliable and efficient support for their essential service needs.
