Placement fees for a new-hire helper typically run S$1,500–3,500 through Singapore maid agencies; transfer helper placements are generally lower at S$500–1,500. On top of the placement fee, budget for 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 for eligible households with a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability). Confirm what is bundled into the fee — mandatory FDW insurance (roughly S$300–600 per year), the Settling-In Programme, the pre-employment medical examination, and Work Permit application — versus what is charged on top.

Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold a MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence, which is publicly verifiable on MOM's online EA directory by agency name or licence number. The licence number should appear on the agency's website, contracts, and invoices. EA Grading runs from A+ to C; an A+ or A rating signals stronger compliance and better complaint-handling history. At the time of this listing, Fulbright International Enterprise's EA Licence details have not been provided to KakiList and ACRA registration is unconfirmed. Before paying any deposit, search for the agency by name on the MOM EA directory to confirm active licensed status. Hiring through an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you with no recourse if the helper absconds or the agency folds, and can void your insurance coverage. 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.

Industry-standard replacement windows typically run six months from the helper's arrival date, with one or two replacement helpers included within that period. Confirm in writing exactly what triggers the guarantee — a documented skills or temperament mismatch — versus what voids it, such as the household deciding to terminate without documented cause. Also clarify the early-termination process outside the guarantee window. If a placement breaks down after the guarantee period, the household generally bears the cost of the helper's repatriation flight, any unused levy refund administration, and Work Permit cancellation paperwork. Additional replacement placements after the guarantee window usually attract a further fee. As Fulbright International Enterprise has not published specific guarantee terms on KakiList, ask for these details in writing during your initial enquiry before signing any agreement.
