If you\u2019re looking to hire domestic help any time soon, then know that there are some changes in the air.<\/p>\n

According to a report in the Gulf News<\/a>, the Musaned platform, which handles domestic labour services and operates under the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD), means expatriates<\/a> living in Saudi Arabia won’t be able to hire domestic workers of their own nationality anymore. Musaned dropped the details in a reply to an inquiry.<\/p>\n

But hey, don’t fret, because you can still bring in domestic workers from other countries.<\/h2>\n

Here’s what you need to have in your wallet to get a first-time recruitment visa: Your monthly salary should be at least SR10,000, and you need to show you’ve got some financial stability with a bank document that proves you’ve got at least SR100,000.<\/p>\n

Now, if you’re going for a second round of visa issuance, the salary requirement doubles to SR20,000. You’ll also need to prove you’re financially capable by having a bank balance sheet with SR200,000 on it.<\/h2>\n

Oh, and you also need a certificate from the GOSI website proving your monthly income. You can find all the nitty-gritty details on the Musaned official website. They’ve got everything you need to know right there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019re looking to hire domestic help any time soon, then know that there are some changes in the air.
