Answers about hiring housemaids in the UAE.


How does DomesticHelper.net verify candidates?+
Every candidate on our platform undergoes a multi-step verification process that includes identity document checks, reference calls with previous employers, in-person or video interviews, and skill assessments. We only list candidates who pass our screening standards. This ensures families can browse and hire with full confidence.
Can I find both full-time and part-time helpers?+
Absolutely. Our platform offers live-in, live-out, full-time, and part-time arrangements. Use our filters to find candidates who match your preferred schedule, whether you need daily support or just a few hours per week. Each candidate profile clearly states their availability preferences.
What areas in the UAE do you cover?+
We serve families across all seven Emirates — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain. The majority of our candidates are based in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, but we have growing availability across all regions.
Do you assist with visa processing for domestic workers?+
While we are a candidate marketplace and not a visa agency, we connect families with trusted visa service providers who can handle new visa applications, renewals, medical fitness tests, Emirates ID registration, and labour contract assistance. We also provide comprehensive guides on the visa sponsorship process.
What nationalities are available on your platform?+
Our platform features candidates from over 15 nationalities including Filipino, Indian, Ethiopian, Ugandan, Kenyan, Indonesian, Nepali, Sri Lankan, Bangladeshi, and more. You can filter by nationality to find the right cultural fit for your household.
Is there a trial period when hiring a domestic helper?+
We strongly recommend agreeing on a trial period with your candidate — typically 1 to 2 weeks. This gives both parties a chance to assess compatibility in real-life household scenarios before making a long-term commitment.
How quickly can I start interviewing candidates?+
Immediately. Once you register and choose a plan, you get instant access to all candidate profiles and their contact details. Most families begin reaching out and scheduling interviews on the same day they sign up.
What is the minimum salary required to sponsor a domestic worker?+
According to UAE regulations, the sponsor's salary with free accommodation should be at least AED 5,000, or AED 10,000 (or AED 9,000 plus accommodation) without employer-provided housing. You must also be living in at minimum a two-bedroom apartment.
How much does a domestic worker visa cost in the UAE?+
The total cost of sponsoring a domestic worker visa in the UAE typically ranges from AED 5,000 to AED 8,500 depending on the emirate and specific requirements. This includes entry permit fees, medical tests, Emirates ID, and residency stamping. Our visa team can provide exact quotes for your situation.
Can I hire a helper who is already in the UAE?+
Yes. Many candidates on our platform are already located in the UAE and are available to start immediately — either on a visit visa, transfer visa, or cancellation. Our team can guide you through the correct process based on each candidate's visa status.
