Employer of Record by country
An Employer of Record (EOR) lets you hire a full-time employee in a country where you have no legal entity: the EOR becomes the legal employer, running compliant local payroll, withholding tax, and administering statutory benefits, while you manage the day-to-day work. The right choice and the real cost both depend heavily on the country, because employer social contributions range from low single digits to over 30% of salary, and notice, severance, and leave rules differ sharply. Each guide below gives a direct answer, a structured “at a glance” data card, sourced employer-cost figures, the statutory benefits an EOR must fund, and the providers that fit that market best. We currently cover 27 researched countries and publish a guide only once its core figures are verified. Pick a country to see its costs, labor-law basics, and recommended EOR providers.

Frequently asked questions
We publish 27 fully researched country guides today and are expanding toward 100+. Each guide is only published once its core statutory figures have been verified against credible sources.
Yes. Statutory figures (minimum wage, employer contribution rates) are published only when two or more credible sources agree, each with a source URL and date checked. Provider fees and setup times are shown as clearly-labelled indicative ranges, not statutory facts.
We score providers on independent customer reviews (G2, Trustpilot), country coverage, and how well they fit that specific market. Rankings are vendor-neutral: affiliate commissions never change the order.
Usually yes. The major EOR providers cover 150+ countries, so a market we have not written up yet is often still serviceable. Start with the provider comparison, then confirm coverage and pricing directly with the provider.
