ABSTRACT
Migration of women and domestic work are closely related, owing to the ease with which migrants can enter this occupation and its gendered nature. Migration for domestic work, with a deep historical root, has been reinvented in the past two decades. Domestic service has been the common and also normally the first occupation of women in almost all the countries. There are hardly any entry restrictions, as the skill demand for the occupation is often an extension of household work, performed largely by women in their own households.
