Maid visa cost in the UAE (2026)

What to discuss before requesting a quote

Tell us whether your maid is inside or outside the UAE, her current visa status and the emirate where she will work. Explain whether you need sponsorship for a maid you already know or help recruiting someone as well, so the quote covers the right service.

Ask for the payment schedule as well as the total. If a quote includes an upfront payment and recurring charges, compare their combined cost over the same sponsorship period with any alternative payment option.

What's included

The package covers the full 2-year residency visa, the Emirates ID, the medical fitness test, health insurance, WPS payroll setup, and all government fees. End-of-service dues and visa renewals are handled too.

Use the package inclusions as a checklist when comparing providers. Confirm whether VAT, renewal services and end-of-service arrangements are included in the quoted total or explained separately, and ask for the terms before proceeding.

How to compare maid visa quotes

Separate recruitment from visa sponsorship when comparing offers: finding a new maid is a different service from sponsoring someone you already employ. Make sure each quote covers the same service period and lists the documents, appointments and ongoing support included.

Before agreeing, ask for the quote's validity period, payment due dates and the terms for renewal or cancellation. Keep a copy of the agreed inclusions and terms so you can refer to them throughout the arrangement.

Frequently asked

How much is a maid visa in Dubai?

We provide a personalised quote after reviewing the maid's current status and the sponsorship service required. Ask for a breakdown covering the visa, Emirates ID, medicals, insurance, payroll support and government fees, together with the payment schedule and VAT treatment.

Is the maid visa cost the same across the UAE?

We assist families across the UAE. Share your emirate and the maid's current visa status so we can confirm the applicable package. Compare quotes for the same service and period instead of assuming a headline amount covers every situation.

Are there any hidden fees?

We explain the package inclusions, total, VAT and payment terms before you commit. Ask about renewal, cancellation and any ongoing charges so you can assess the full commitment.
