These are verified drivers listed across the UAE. Each profile shows UAE, GCC and overall experience plus visa status.
To hire a driver in the UAE, filter the verified directory, shortlist two or three profiles, interview them and check references, agree the duties and salary in writing, then sponsor the visa yourself or through a licensed Tadbeer centre and start with a short trial.
A driver gets the family where it needs to be safely and on time, with a valid UAE licence, and keeps the car cared for.
Agree the final list in writing. Every home defines the role a little differently.
Put these questions to each candidate - the answers tell you more than a CV does.
Filter the directory and pick two or three driver profiles that fit your needs, location and budget.
Meet each candidate, ask about their experience, and contact previous employers before you decide.
Confirm duties, salary, day off and start date in writing, so expectations are clear from day one.
For a full-time driver, sponsor the visa yourself as the employer through private sponsorship, or use a licensed Tadbeer centre to handle it for you.
Begin with a short trial period to make sure the driver is the right fit before committing long term.
The work type decides the cover you get, the cost, and how the visa is handled. Start from how many hours you really need, and when.
The worker lives in your home and is on hand for most of the day. For a driver, the family gets very early or late runs without watching the clock, though live-in drivers are less common. Plan for a private room, fair rest hours and a fixed weekly day off.
The worker comes in each day and heads home in the evening. For a driver, you get fixed hours for the school run, errands and airport trips, then the driver heads home - how most drivers work. It can cost a little more per hour, but you keep your space to yourself.
The lightest, most flexible option. For a driver, occasional school runs or weekend trips are covered. Part-time and hourly help should be arranged through a licensed agency, never informally, so the worker stays legal and covered.
Use the filters to narrow down, then reach out to the workers who match.
