The Tadbeer Visa is more than paperwork. The center becomes the worker's legal employer for compliance purposes, while the worker lives or works with you. Four things sit on the center's side of the line.
Sponsorship
The Tadbeer center carries the work permit on its MOHRE licence — your name doesn't appear on the visa file.
WPS Payroll
You transfer the agreed amount to the center; the center pays the worker through the Wages Protection System.
Contract Lifecycle
Initial contract, renewals, amendments, and the eventual exit — all handled inside the MOHRE portal.
End-of-Service
Gratuity calculations, leave accrual, and exit visa formalities are administered by the center, not by you.
From shortlist to home — three stages.
DomesticHelper is the marketplace. Tadbeer is the legal channel. Together they take you from "I think I want this candidate" to a fully-sponsored worker living or working with your family.

Tadbeer in the UAE — what it is, who it's for, and why it exists.
Tadbeer is the framework the UAE government built to make domestic worker hiring traceable, regulated, and fair. Every Tadbeer center is licensed by the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) and operates under Federal Decree-Law No. 9 of 2022 — the legislation that replaced the older, fragmented rules around live-in workers, nannies, drivers, and household staff. If you're searching for Tadbeer Dubai or a Tadbeer center near you, this page is the directory you'd otherwise piece together from scattered listings.
Where Tadbeer Dubai centers operate
Of the 134-plus MOHRE-licensed Tadbeer centers across the UAE, the largest cluster sits in Dubai. Centers serve neighbourhoods in Al Nahda, Bur Dubai, Deira, Al Quoz, and Business Bay — though location matters less than it used to. Most Tadbeer Dubai centers process visas digitally, so a center in Al Nahda can sponsor a worker who lives with you in Jumeirah without anyone driving across the city.
Why Tadbeer over a regular hiring channel
The honest answer: it's the only legal channel left. Since 2022, the UAE has phased out unregulated maid agencies as the primary route for domestic workers. A Tadbeer center is required to publish transparent pricing, register the worker on MOHRE, run medical and orientation checks, and treat the worker under labour-law standards rather than informal arrangements. Crucially, the worker never pays a fee — UAE law puts that responsibility entirely on the employer.
How to find a Tadbeer center near you
Three ways. First, the partner cards higher up this page connect you to verified Tadbeer Dubai centers — Ritaj, ViceKeeper, and M A F — with direct phone and WhatsApp. Second, if you're outside Dubai, the wider UAE network covers Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Al Ain, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain. Third, if you'd rather not pick yourself, message us — DomesticHelper's team can match your candidate and budget to the right center in a single message.
