About MNK Employment Agency
MNK Employment Agency is a domestic helper placement service based in Woodlands, operating islandwide across Singapore. The agency is KakiList-verified and ACRA-registered. No Google reviews are currently available, so independent rating data cannot be assessed at this stage. Pricing follows a package model typical of the placement sector, though specific fees were not provided and should be confirmed directly with the agency.
When engaging MNK Employment Agency, the usual process begins with discussing your household's requirements — number of family members, care needs, preferred source country (Indonesia, the Philippines, Myanmar, or Sri Lanka), and any language preferences. The agency should be able to present candidate profiles for both new-hire and transfer helpers. Key cost components to confirm in writing include the placement fee, the helper's monthly salary (typically S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience), the monthly MOM levy (S$300 standard, or the concessionary S$60 rate if your household includes a child under 16, an elderly member aged 67 or above, or a person with disability), mandatory FDW insurance, the Settling-In Programme fee, the pre-employment medical examination, and the Work Permit application. Clarify what is bundled into the package and what is billed separately. Ask also about the replacement guarantee window and the process and costs involved should the placement break down before that window closes.
To take the next step, contact MNK Employment Agency by phone or via the enquiry form to discuss your household profile, request candidate shortlists, and obtain a full written breakdown of all placement fees and ongoing costs before committing.
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 at maid agencies in Singapore typically run S$1,500–3,500 for a new-hire helper and S$500–1,500 for a transfer helper already in Singapore. MNK Employment Agency uses a package pricing model, but specific figures were not published at the time of this listing — request a written quote before proceeding. Beyond the placement fee, budget for the helper's monthly salary (S$550–800 depending on nationality and experience), the monthly MOM levy (S$300 standard, or S$60 at the concessionary rate for qualifying households), mandatory FDW insurance (~S$300–600 per year), the Settling-In Programme, a pre-employment medical examination, and the Work Permit application. Confirm which of these are bundled and which are billed on top. See the full maid agency cost guide for Singapore →
Every legitimate maid agency in Singapore must hold a MOM Employment Agency (EA) Licence, which is verifiable by name or licence number on MOM's online EA directory. At the time of this listing, MNK Employment Agency's EA Licence does not appear in the regulatory licences confirmed for this profile — you should ask the agency directly for its EA Licence number and cross-check it on the MOM directory before paying any deposit. EA Grading runs from A+ to C; agencies rated A+ or A have stronger compliance and complaint-handling track records. Engaging an unlicensed agent is illegal, leaves you with no recourse if problems arise, and can void your FDW insurance. Verify the EA Licence on MOM's online EA directory at mom.gov.sg before signing any agreement.
A standard replacement guarantee covers a window of roughly six months from the helper's arrival date. Within that period, the agency should arrange a replacement if the placement is genuinely unsuitable — though agencies vary on how many replacements are included and what circumstances they will accept as grounds. Confirm in writing: the exact guarantee period, what voids it (for example, employer-side changes versus documented helper mismatch), and the cost of any additional replacements beyond what is included. Also clarify the early-termination process outside the guarantee window — the household bears the repatriation flight cost, Work Permit cancellation paperwork, and refund of unused MOM levy in those situations. As no published details on MNK Employment Agency's guarantee terms were available for this listing, raise these questions explicitly before signing the placement contract.
