About Mermaid Employment Pte Ltd
Mermaid Employment Pte Ltd is a maid agency operating islandwide from its office at 1 Scotts Rd, #24-10, Singapore 228208. The listing is KakiList-verified and ACRA-registered. No regulatory licence details have been provided in the current listing data, and no Google reviews are available at this time, so prospective clients should verify the agency's MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence directly on MOM's online EA directory before proceeding.
When engaging a maid agency, the first step is to establish whether you need a new-hire helper or a transfer helper — the placement fee and waiting time differ significantly. Discuss source-country preferences (Indonesia, Philippines, Myanmar, Sri Lanka), expected monthly salary (typically S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience), and the monthly MOM levy (S$300 standard, or S$60 concessionary if your household includes a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability). Confirm what is bundled into the placement fee — mandatory FDW insurance, the Settling-In Programme, medical examination, and Work Permit application — and what is billed separately. Ask about the replacement guarantee window and the process for early termination, including repatriation costs, as these fall on the employing household if the placement breaks down outside the guarantee period.
Contact Mermaid Employment Pte Ltd via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form to confirm their MOM EA Licence number, current helper availability, and the full cost breakdown before paying any deposit.
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.

Placement fees vary depending on whether you are hiring a new helper or a transfer helper. New-hire placements typically run S$1,500–3,500; transfer placements are generally lower at S$500–1,500. Confirm exactly what is bundled — mandatory FDW insurance (roughly S$300–600 per year), the MOM-required Settling-In Programme, pre-employment medical examination, and Work Permit application — versus what is invoiced on top. Beyond the agency 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).

Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold an MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence, which is verifiable by name or licence number on MOM's online EA directory. The licence number should appear on the agency's website, contracts, and invoices. EA Grading runs from A+ to C; an A+ or A grade signals stronger compliance and complaint-handling standards. No licence details are listed in the current KakiList data for Mermaid Employment Pte Ltd, so you should ask the agency directly for their EA Licence number and cross-check it on the MOM directory before paying any deposit. Hiring through an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you with no recourse if the helper absconds or the agency folds, 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 window is typically six months from the helper's arrival in your household, with one or more replacements included. Confirm how many replacements are covered, what circumstances void the guarantee (for example, documented incompatibility versus a change of mind), and the cost of any additional replacements beyond what is included. Also clarify the early-termination process — specifically who bears the repatriation flight cost, how unused MOM levy is handled, and who completes the Work Permit cancellation paperwork — because these costs fall on the employing household if the placement breaks down outside the guarantee window. Contact Mermaid Employment Pte Ltd directly to obtain their guarantee terms in writing before signing.
