Hi Lewis,

I knew a few Philipinos in Cairo and they had to have a foreign diplomat to sponsor them to get their work visa.

Thank you Margaret; I am no diplomate to be sure but I have a strong desire to bring Ella with us so I will need to keep searching for a way to do this smoothly.

Hi Lewis,

How are you getting in cairo? Did you managed to have your maid brought in to egypt? I'm just curious of bringing maid abroad into egypt. Anyway, I too is a malaysian and we live in alexandria. We've been here since last december. How do you find egypt? Did you managed to get to know malaysians in cairo?

take care,

regine

It is almost impossible to bring foreign maids into Egypt without a sponser.
I work for a foreigner who likes to employ Phillipinos Sri Lankans etc and we have to send them to my employers country of residence so proving that they worked for her before bringing them into Cairo

There are many Filipino maids here in Cairo who work freelance.
Once you are here and if you want a Filipino maid it should be easy to find one.
To bring a foreign maid into this country is difficult if not impossible for the ordinary man in the street
