A common and highly frustrating grievance among families trying to recruit domestic help in Dubai is the "bait and switch" pricing model used by many unscrupulous agencies. Competitors frequently advertise an incredibly low typing fee (e.g., AED 3,000) on social media simply to get you in the door and take your passport copies. Weeks later, they reveal mandatory medical costs, high typing center upcharges, and expensive PRO courier fees. At Mountain Gate, our AED 6,900 package is an absolute, fixed, all-inclusive price. We believe in 100% transparency. Here is exactly what is inside the box when you hire through us.
The Comprehensive Breakdown of Services
For AED 6,900, Mountain Gate handles the entire A-to-Z administrative and legal journey of your helper's 2-year visa. This is a turnkey solution. The package specifically covers:
- Entry Permit / Pink Visa: The initial government visa required to legally enter the country from abroad, or the official "status change" fees if they are already inside the UAE on a visit visa.
- Medical Fitness Test: Complete facilitation of the DHA-approved medical screening. This includes VIP typing, booking the appointment, and tracking the digital result to ensure it clears the system rapidly.
- Emirates ID Biometrics & Issuance: All ICP (immigration) typing, processing fees, and appointment scheduling for the physical national identity card.
- MOHRE Unified Contract: The drafting, typing, bilingual translation, and official registration of the federal employment contract, ensuring you are legally protected.
- Residency Visa Stamping: The final, heavy government fees required for the 2-year residency endorsement on the helper's immigration file.
Absolutely No Hidden Surprises or "PRO" Fees
This package is meticulously designed from the ground up for ultimate transparency. Once you pay the AED 6,900, you will not receive sudden WhatsApp messages asking for an extra AED 500 for a "PRO processing fee," or an extra AED 300 for "urgent courier services." The AED 6,900 entirely encompasses the total administrative and governmental cost required to legally employ a domestic worker for two years in Dubai.
What is Explicitly Not Included?
For absolute clarity and honesty, while the package covers all administrative, government, and visa processes, employers must remember their standard ongoing obligations. You are still responsible for the helper's agreed-upon monthly salary, their mandatory DHA health insurance premium (which we can facilitate for you for roughly AED 600-800 depending on the provider), and their physical flight ticket into the country (if they are being recruited from overseas). By offering incredibly clear boundaries on what is and isn't included, Mountain Gate ensures your household budgeting is accurate, predictable, and entirely stress-free.
