Three steps. You see every price before you agree, and you only pay for an offer you accept.
Say what you need in a sentence or two. Posting costs nothing.
Taskers who have done this before send an offer with their own price. Ask questions, then pick one.
Accept an offer and pay. Taskly holds the payment until you say the work is done.

The things people ask before they post in Dubai and the UAE.
Most of it falls between AED 150–2,500, depending on how much you need. Each Tasker names their own price in their offer, so you see the cost before you agree to anything.
Many UAE employers still expect a professional photo, nationality and current location on a CV, unlike in Canada or the US. Keep it to two pages and put your notice period near the top.
Common ones are the Wage Protection System (WPS) for salaries, Emiratisation targets and reporting, onboarding expats, and how you've handled employee relations. Recruiters want local context, not every regulation by heart.
Ejari is the Dubai Land Department's system for registering tenancy contracts. A registered Ejari is commonly needed to connect DEWA and for many residency and family paperwork steps.
Posting is free. When you accept an offer you pay the agreed price. Your money is held by Taskly until you confirm the task is done. If you don’t, it’s released three days after your Tasker marks it finished — unless you report a problem.
People who have done what you need: worked at the company, passed the exam, made the move. Every Tasker is reviewed and approved by a person before they work.
Career and everyday help only. Taskers do not give visa or immigration advice; for that, use a licensed consultant or lawyer.
