I am moving to Doha from UAE and am interested to find out what is the best way to employ a fulltime housemaid? are they available locally (in Doha) to interview/shortlist? what is the going salary range for a full time maid?

There are some agencies in DOHA which provide LIVE-IN MAIDs or part time MAIDs..I'd hired NANNY from one such agency two years back and paid QR 2000 for one month for working 8hrs in a day and 5 days in a week..

2) Jassim Group Tilting R/A

3) Manpower, behind KFC Immigration R/A -al-Ward agency (behind KFC /-a-t-/ Immigrstion R/A)

Unlike Dubai, you don't get many part-time or live-in maids here. You will have to sponsor one yourself or you can apply through agencies in Qatar. Agencies charge around QR 1,500 - Qr 2,500 pm plus visa, airticket etc. and you'll have to keep the maid for the duration of the visa. Certain nationalities are restricted and you cannot sponsor a maid of your own nationality.

Maids are also available through agencies on an hourly pay basis. The current going rate is QR 30/- p/hr.

Cheers
