      just to update that i called the office for ktkln and was told that effective march 2012, only the contract issued by the embassy is accepted. also was told that the ktkln card will not be issued if the salary is below $400.

        Hi,


        I am also trying to bring in an ex-Singapore maid by myself, but understand she needs an employment contract from her embassy in order to make the KTKLN card. May I know what is this employment contract all about?

        Thanks!

          hi

          the emplyment contract basically sets outthe terms of emplyment btwn u andur maid- basic stuff like providing 3 nutritious meals and bringg her to a dr when shes sick. its a std contract. wld advise u to go early tho, theres usually a queue.

            So, the employment contract can be made in the indonesian embassy? I am getting confused and not sure how to advise my potential maid to apply for her exit card. Since this employment contract is the new thing now.

                Yes, sounds complicated with all these new rules, am getting a agent to help me to do up the docs here but maid has to do up the documentation on her own. Not many agencies have direct hire experience.

                  I think coming into SGP should be no problem. You'll need to apply to MOM either online or personally for a work permit. Then you'll probably need to send it to her so she can present it to the immigration officer at the airport.

                    My maid currently back Yogyakarta on home leave. At the changi airport, was told need the contract. My DH rushed back n get it but my maid went inside and flew off. We thought since can went thru so no problem. Last week went return, she was rejected by custom from Jakarta being w/o KTKLN pass. I have couriered last week the working contract and airticket to her suppose to reach yesterday but till now the OCS courier cannot tell me why is not delivered. I purchased Thursday Airasia 1 way ticket to Sin. Now as i read if salary less than $400 will not be issued with KTKLN am going crazy…cos her salary only $380. Am totally confused and exhuasted. I unable to communicate to my maid as she stayed 4 hrs away in Yogokarta. The phone line is very bad there. I have a colleagues to help communicating with her there but it is just too much trouble…how?? really regretted to let her back for home leave!!!

                      Hi ksks3mum, I guess you might need a agent there to help you up or some one familiar with the new rulings to help you. I have gave up to import my new maid over myself, instead I engage this agent who is an indonesian herself to settle everything for me. She travels to Indonesia frequently so she said she is meeting up with my maid to guide her how to come direct next month. You may want to ask my agent help you up if she is happened to be there.
