Expand your team in Kazakhstan with Remote

You can now pay contractors in Kazakhstan through Remote in some currencies (talk to a Remote expert now for more details).

To hire in Kazakhstan, companies generally must either set up a local legal entity or work with a global employment solutions provider to employ staff on the company’s behalf. Establishing the processes for payroll, benefits, taxes, and onboarding in markets like Kazakhstan can become complex quickly without localised expertise. If you’re preparing to hire in a market like this, using a global HR platform like Remote helps you hire while aligning with local laws. In the countries where we do offer our Employer of Record product, Remote takes on responsibility for compliance so you can focus on hiring great talent and growing your business.

Kazakhstan, like many other countries, treats self-employed individuals or contractors and full-time employees differently. Misclassification of contractors in Kazakhstan may lead to fines and penalties for the offending company.
