GCC Domestic

Find, list or compare maid / domestic-worker recruitment agencies (housemaids, nannies, cooks, drivers, caregivers) in a city or country - e.g. 'maid agencies in Dubai' -> city: Dubai. Use this for any 'agencies in <place>' question. Searches agencies listed on GCC Domestic across the six GCC countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman). Filter by country, city and/or a free-text name query. Returns contact details, whether each agency is government-verified (1,300+ are), and the official registry link where one exists.

Check the licence of ONE specific agency the user names (or its licence / facility number). Not for finding or listing agencies in a city or country - use search_agencies for that. Look up by agency name, or by licence / facility number (e.g. a UAE MOHRE facility number or Saudi Musaned reference). Returns the licence status recorded on GCC Domestic plus the official government registry link for independent verification.
