Based on the analysis of the legal regulations governing the conditions of emigration and the employment of sub-Saharan domestic personnel in France since the early 20th century, this documentary note retraces the social history of this socio-professional category during the colonial period and after independence. It raises the question of how a professional segment continued to be attributed to a particular ethnicity and how a relationship of subordination came to fall within a legal framework.
