Direct Hire Maid Services in Singapore

If you have already found a helper yourself, for example through a friend or a previous employer, Suria can handle the paperwork so she can start working for you.

What our direct hire service covers

• Checking her documents and eligibility
• Work permit application with the Ministry of Manpower
• Arranging the medical check-up and helper insurance
• Guidance on the settling-in steps after she arrives

How it works

1. Send us her details on WhatsApp or visit our Bugis office.
2. We check her documents and explain the steps and fees.
3. We submit the applications and keep you updated until she starts.

When direct hire makes sense

Direct hire suits you if you have already found a helper yourself, for example a friend's former helper or someone recommended by family. You skip the sourcing and matching, and we take care of the MOM paperwork, insurance and medical check-up so everything is done correctly.

What we handle for a direct hire

• Work permit application and issuance with MOM
• Medical and personal accident insurance, and the security bond guarantee
• Medical check-up and, for a first-time helper, the Settling-In Programme
• Employment contract and safety agreement

What you need to provide

• The helper's passport and, if she is in Singapore, her current work permit details
• Your NRIC and household details for the levy and concession check
• The agreed salary, rest days and start date
