The process of transferring a domestic worker, even in the case of a Huroob report, has been made possible through the online services provided by the Absher platform. However, there are certain conditions that must be met for a successful transfer. The Jawazat has outlined the following requirements:
1. Waiver of Services: The current employer must initiate the process by waiving the services of the domestic worker through the Absher platform.
2. Approval from Both Parties: Both the domestic worker and the new employer must give their approval for the transfer request through Absher within a period of 7 days.
3. Clean Record: Both the new employer and the domestic worker must have a clean record without any traffic violations.
4. Absence of Huroob Status: The domestic worker should not be registered as Huroob or Absent From Work in the system.
5. Transfer Limitations: The transfer of domestic worker services is limited to a maximum of 4 times.
6. Iqama Validity: The domestic worker must have a remaining validity of 15 days or more on their Iqama (residence permit) at the time of the transfer.
7. Transfer Service Fee: A transfer service fee is required to be paid.
The Jawazat has provided clear guidelines for the transfer of domestic worker services, even in cases where Huroob has been reported. By following the outlined conditions and steps, both the domestic worker and the new employer can facilitate a smooth and lawful transfer. It is important to be aware of these regulations to ensure compliance with the procedures set by the Saudi authorities.
