How does the Insurance Guarantee Bond to the Singapore’s MOM work?

Chubb will transmit the details of the Insurance Guarantee Bond for the sum of S$5,000 serving as a security bond on your behalf to the MOM. As such, you do not need to pay the S$5,000 cash up front to the MOM when hiring a maid.

  • For new and transfer maid, Chubb will transmit your guarantee details to MOM within 14 days prior to the policy effective date.
  • For renewal maid, Chubb will transmit your guarantee details to MOM within 60 days prior to the policy effective date.

In the event that a demand is made by the MOM, Chubb will first settle the payment and subsequently recover it from you under the Counter Indemnity arrangement of the insurance.

If you have chosen to enhance your plan with the optional cover of Waiver of Counter Indemnity, Chubb will first settle the payment and subsequently recover it from you up to the excess amount of S$250.

How does the Waiver of Counter Indemnity Benefit work?

This applies only to the security bond of S$5,000 paid to MOM on your behalf. If you have chosen to enhance your plan with the optional cover of Waiver of Counter Indemnity, Chubb will waive their rights to recover the security bond of S$5,000 paid to MOM, subject to an excess amount of S$250 which will apply.

How should I renew my maid’s work permit?

Here’s a 3-step guide# to get you started:

  • Step 1: Get a maid insurance policy
  • Step 2: Renew your maid’s work permit online (to be done only after Chubb has transmitted the security bond to MOM)
    You should receive a renewal letter from MOM about 8 weeks before your maid’s current work permit expires. Log into MOM’s Work Permit Online portal to submit a scanned copy of your maid’s passport personal particulars page (remember to renew your maid’s passport first if it is expiring in 6 months!) and details for delivery of the new work permit. The renewal will cost you S$35.
  • Step 3: Prepare for home leave/ Get Authenticated Contract (for Filipino maids only)
    For Filipino maids, you will need to get an Authenticated Employment Contract and if she’s going on home leave, you also need to apply for an “exit pass”, known as the OEC. You can refer to a checklist of documents that the Philippines Embassy requires here.

    For Indonesian maids going on home leave, you need to get a Kartu Pekerja Indonesia Singapura (KPIS) card if your maid does not have one.
