3.3.2 Visible Labels requires that there be visible labels (not placeholder text and not just hidden screenreader text).

2.4.6 Descriptive Labels requires that the text of the labels clearly and meaningfully describe the purpose and use of the labelled element. This applies to instructions as well as label elements.
