I have received approval to hire a Housemaid in Qatar. What do I need to do if I want to hire someone I have already interviewed? How do I hire her directly?

I f you have recived approval , then you also should have been informed as to which nationality you can hire.

You could contact the embassy of the housemaid nationality to enquire as to the process

Normally, you can bring a maid from outside of Qatar or find someone who is already in country with a transferable visa. You must make sure that her visa status is legal and the current sponsor has no issues with the transfer to save yourself any headaches.

• The maid will have to undergo medical testing to check for HIV, TB and pregnancy as well as fingerprinting.

• There are also Maid Recruitment Agencies that can handle the whole process for you. They have potential candidates on their books and they will do the flights, visa, etc. This can be a much easier, if slightly more expensive, option
