Aflah Employment Agency Pte Ltd ✓ ACRA Verified

Placement fees for a new-hire helper typically run S$1,500–3,500 through Singapore maid agencies; transfer helpers (already in Singapore on a current Work Permit) usually attract a lower placement fee of S$500–1,500. On top of the agency placement fee, factor in the helper's monthly salary (S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience) and the monthly MOM levy (S$300 standard, or S$60 concessionary if your household has a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability). Confirm what is bundled into the quoted package — mandatory FDW insurance (~S$300–600/year), the Settling-In Programme, pre-deployment medical examination, and Work Permit application — versus what is billed separately.

Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold an MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence, which is publicly verifiable on MOM's online EA directory by searching the agency name or licence number. The licence number should appear on the agency's website, contracts, and invoices. No MOM EA Licence is recorded against Aflah Employment Agency Pte Ltd's listing on KakiList at this time — you should confirm the licence directly with the agency and cross-check it on MOM's directory before paying any deposit. EA Grading runs from A+ to C; A+ and A grades signal stronger compliance records and more robust complaint-handling. Engaging an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you with no recourse if problems arise, and can void your FDW insurance. Verify the EA Licence number on MOM's online EA directory before paying any deposit, and read the agency contract's replacement, refund, and early-termination clauses.

A standard replacement guarantee typically covers a window of six months from the helper's arrival date and includes one or more replacements at no additional placement fee, subject to conditions. Ask specifically what circumstances void the guarantee — a documented skills or personality mismatch is usually covered, whereas a change of mind on the employer's part may not be. Also clarify the early-termination process if the placement breaks down outside the guarantee window: repatriation flight costs, refund of any unused MOM levy, and Work Permit cancellation paperwork are generally borne by the household in those circumstances. Aflah Employment Agency Pte Ltd has not published specific terms publicly, so request written confirmation of the replacement policy and all associated conditions before committing.
