Advice Needed - Dubai Visa Run for Maid?

Question

Our Filipino maid needs a visa run to Oman. Can we take her or do we have to go through one of these Agencies? Not in a position to sponsor her yet as my residence is going through now (for info).

Answer 1

It depends on what kind of visa she is here right now. If she's on an evisa, you have to go through an agency because then this new visa will be arranged by the agency.

No one is allowed to employ a domestic helper who is not under his or her sponsorship. Those who employ maids illegally are liable to be fined not less than Dh10,000.

Take care.

Answer 2

Kitty - your question is not very clear. Can you clarify the following:

- Are you and the maid already in Dubai?

- Is the maid already in Dubai under any other sponsor's work visa?

- Are you shifting to Oman and want to take your maid along?

- What to you mean by visa run to Oman?

To validate or cancel Residence or Work Visas the person has to enter/exit through any UAE airport only (not by road).

In UAE, all your dependants and maid have to be sponsored by you. But in Oman all visas must be sponsored by the company for which you are working.
