The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) - National Capital Region (NCR) reaffirmed on Friday that it is not required to issue visas.&nbsp;
In a statement, the agency said it is not required to inspect, process, or approve any visa documents for Filipino individuals wishing to migrate or emigrate to any foreign country.&nbsp;
The warning comes in the wake of complaints of unscrupulous individuals or groups using the department's name to demand a charge for the issue of visa paperwork.
&ldquo;Scam Alert. DOLE-NCR warns the public against scammers attempting to request a clearance fee of visa documents that should be paid to the Department of Labor and Employment,&rdquo; it stated.&nbsp;
The warning made no mention of the purported clearance fee to be paid to the department. The DOLE-NCR also warned consumers to be vigilant of organizations or individuals with whom they conduct business.&nbsp;

"Stay vigilant and protected against these fraudulent activities," it advised.
