hi good day to all, i'm from philippines and working in saudi arabia as housemaid for almost 12 yrs now but i'm planning to work in turkey as housemaid i want to know what is the document or requirement do i need to process if i found a turkish employer there actually i have a friend and he ask me to go there i said i need to process my tourist visa to get there but i'm thinking why not work there instead of going as tourist visa thanks for response
Getting a work permit to legally work in Turkey is not easy and you must first have a job offer before you can proceed with an application. Furthermore. the employer must prove to the Department of Labour that the foreigner they want to hire has skills that are not possessed by others in the Turkish workforce.
The process can take quite some time so it is better to have the employer apply for your paperwork before moving to Turkey.
You can read more about the requirements on the Work Permits for Turkey page.
Best of Luck
