Frequently Asked
Questions
How to legally pay a housekeeper in Monaco?
To legally pay a housekeeper in Monaco, you must register them with the Caisse de Compensation des Services Sociaux (CCSS) before their first day. This covers social security and health insurance.
You’ll also need to issue monthly payslips showing salary, social contributions, and benefits. Monaco doesn’t have income tax for residents, but social charges through CCSS are required.
Morgan & Mallet offers a payroll service that handles CCSS registration, work permits, monthly payslips, and compliance. You get one simple monthly invoice with minimum fuss, less red tape, and a faster, safer way to build your household team.
How long does it typically take to find and hire a household staff member in Monaco?
The timeline varies depending on the role. Common positions like housekeepers or chauffeurs can be filled within two to three weeks because Morgan & Mallet maintains a ready database of pre-screened candidates.
More specialized roles take longer, especially if they require specific skills or language combinations.
Monaco’s small local talent pool means most candidates need to commute or relocate nearby, which adds time (work permits, relocation etc.).
Morgan & Mallet’s database of over 50,300 registered candidates helps speed up the process.
You skip the frustration of sorting through hundreds of unqualified applications yourself.
What are the downsides of using a staffing agency?
The main downside is cost. Agency services add to your overall hiring expenses compared to finding someone yourself.
Watch out for agencies who only charge on success. The quality of candidates and screening often suffers when agencies rush placements to beat competitors.
Morgan & Mallet conducts thorough background checks including criminal records, multiple reference calls, and social media screening before any candidate is sent to you. This protects you from bad hires and ensures you only meet pre-vetted, qualified candidates.
Do you handle payroll, taxes, and social security registration for Monaco staff directly?
Yes, Morgan & Mallet offers a full payroll service that handles CCSS registration, monthly payslips, social security contributions, and compliance with Monaco employment law.
You receive one simple monthly invoice that covers everything.
The invoice includes the candidate’s salary, pension contributions, accountant fees, HR costs, and insurance coverage. This means no surprise costs or changing amounts when regulations update.
This service is especially popular with international clients who want to avoid the hassle of managing Monaco’s administrative requirements themselves.
