Minimum salary, paid leaves and work permit : house made minimum salary

السؤال

Assalamu Alaykum, Dear Dr Kahf, We had a house maid with us for 3 years, when we moved to Middle East we sponsored our maid to come with us. When we were back home we were paying her a fixed amount. In the new country the law requires a minimum salary amount for the house maid. In order to fulfill the paper work we entered this minimum salary amount and got the maid signed to get her the residency visa. We continued to pay her double the amount than what we paid back home, but still less than the new countries stipulated minimum salary. We gave her all the other benefits as per law, such as air ticket, accommodation etc. Do we need to pay her as per new countries law or can I pay her the amount I am currently paying ? My maid is not aware of these laws. Barakallah feeq. Rifai
