Frequently asked questions
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a firm that legally employs your team in a country where you lack an entity — it handles payroll, benefits, contracts and compliance while you continue to direct the day-to-day work.
An EOR is appropriate if you enter a new market without an entity, onboard employees after an acquisition, need to correct worker misclassification, or hire for temporary or project-based roles.
Termination rules are determined by local employment law and differ significantly between jurisdictions. Notice periods, severance entitlements and payment of accrued benefits such as untaken holiday vary by country, and can also depend on length of service and reason for departure within the same jurisdiction. As the legal employer, Remote manages the process: we determine the legal requirements for the case, prepare the necessary documents, conduct the discussion with the employee, and settle final wages and severance through payroll. We collaborate with you on the approach and the terms.
Yes. Equity is taxed differently in every country, and as the legal employer Remote is responsible for getting that right. We review whether your plan works in the employee's country, handle withholding and payroll processing when a grant vests, exercises, or settles, and file the reports the country requires. This is covered by Remote Equity at $39 per employee per month for EOR employees who receive equity, on top of your base EOR fee. You can connect your cap table through Carta or Pulley so grant data flows in automatically.
A staffing agency supplies workers while you remain their manager and retain legal responsibility for their employment. An EOR is different: Remote becomes the legal employer and assumes payroll, benefits, compliance and contractual obligations, while you continue to direct day-to-day activities.
An EOR becomes the legal employer for your team in countries where you lack an entity — it is designed to hire internationally without first establishing one. A PEO is a co-employment arrangement for companies that already have a legal entity (for Remote, this is in the US), sharing employer duties such as payroll, benefits and compliance while you retain day-to-day control.
Remote's EOR starts at $599 per employee per month, with transparent pricing and no hidden fees. See full pricing for what's included and talk to our team for discounts at scale.
Imagine you want to hire a software engineer in Portugal but lack a legal entity there. Remote employs that person on your behalf through one of its owned entities — managing their contract, payroll, benefits and local compliance — while you continue to manage the role and the work directly.
