Common confusion

Agency hire is not agency sponsorship.

Both involve a licensed agency, so families often mix them up. The difference is who finds her, who she works for and who pays her. The visa packages on this page are the second: visa sponsorship for a nanny you have found yourself.

Agency hire

Hiring through an agency

The agency's monthly package: you pay the agency, and the agency employs her.

  • Who finds her: the agency, from its own roster
  • Who she works for: the agency, which places her in your home
  • Who pays her: the agency, out of your monthly fee
  • If it doesn't work out: the agency sends a replacement
  • What you pay: one monthly fee, from AED 2,500 a month and up
Direct hire

Agency sponsorship only

You find and hire her yourself; a licensed agency handles her sponsorship and the required minimum salary payment.

  • Who finds her: you, for example on Yaya
  • Who she works for: your family, on the terms you agree with her
  • Who pays her: you fund her full agreed salary. The sponsor transfers the required minimum portion, and you pay her the balance directly
  • What the agency does: her visa, Emirates ID, insurance, paperwork and the minimum salary payment
  • What you pay: her full salary (part through the sponsor, the rest directly), plus the agency's visa and service fees (visa costs)

FAQ

Everything you need to know.

Yes. maids.cc, formally known as Tadbeer, has obtained a 4.8/5 rating from more than 9,000 clients. It is the UAE's single largest employer, with over 18,000 employees.

For a caregiver you found yourself, Maids.cc handles her visa sponsorship: sign and pay online, no office visits, cancel anytime, and she can travel with you. Separately, Maids.cc also supplies its own maids, with same-day arrival, free replacements and health insurance; those benefits belong to its maid service, not to sponsoring a caregiver you found.

Yes, we can sponsor any domestic worker in the UAE.

We have centres throughout the UAE to serve our customers.

Using your personalised maids.cc app, you can cancel your service at any time with no penalty.

Housekeeping Co. processes a 2-year domestic-worker visa under its Tadbeer licence. The visa fee covers government fees, the medical test, Emirates ID and insurance. Its team handles documents, the labour contract and renewal reminders, with a dedicated account manager and support team for Yaya clients.

You and your nanny agree her full salary. Under a sponsorship arrangement, the visa sponsor collects the required minimum salary payment from you each month and transfers it to her. You pay her any remaining agreed salary directly. These two payments make up her full salary; visa and service fees are separate. For example, on an agreed AED 4,000 salary, the sponsor processes AED 1,500 and you pay her AED 2,500 directly. Confirm the amount processed by the sponsor and the payment arrangements for your package.

Mention Yaya when you contact Housekeeping Co. The visa fee is AED 8,400 instead of AED 8,500, with an additional AED 160 per month service fee. Confirm your package and payment terms with their team before applying.

Contact your dedicated Housekeeping Co. account manager for changes to your agreement. Confirm cancellation terms directly with Housekeeping Co. before you apply.
