Nope. Just hand written. I don't even think they look at them..just another paper and time wasting exercise.
The exit pass only lasts two months so make sure you don't get it too early or it will run out before your maid needs to get back into the country.
No Arabic translations or stamps needed. You must also take 2 copies and original of your maids employment contract. It will be checked at the POLO office and they will stamp it to say that it is legal. Then they can go to the next desk and get their exit pass.
Have fun!
I thought I would post this to help others who are in the same situation.
Our filipina maid is going on vacation next week so I had to take her to the POLO office yesterday to obtain her exit pass so that she can re-enter Dubai without any problems.
Here are the docs you need:
Go to www.polo-owwadubai.net and go to the downloadable for section. In the 'forms for household staff' section you need to print off and fill in the:
* undertaking_of_employer-a4_size_bomd.doc
*ofw_data_sheet_for_balik_manggagawa.pdf
*infor_sheet-a4_size_bond.xls
You also need 2 copies of each of these forms and 2 copies of the sponsors visa and passport and your helpers visa and passport pages, and 2 copies and original of helpers employment contract from the ministry of labour.
The charges are 150dhs.
There is a copy of the location map on the website as well but typical Dubai...it is useless! We got to the Abu Hail Road and then found a Taxi to follow the rest of the way.
We went at 3.30pm and it was extremely busy. It is probably better to get there early. It took about 1hr and a half when I went so it is probably best to drop your helper off and then go to Carrefour round the corner in Century Mall for a coffee and collect her when she is done.
Hope this helps and Good luck in finding the place!!

Me ,DH and 8 month old DD are homeless for the summer. We are moving to a new villa in August but current landlord wants us out by the end of June. We will be travelling around for most of the time but it would be nice to have a 'base'. Anyone know of any cheap but decent short term rentals in Dubai?
