Frequently asked questions
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that becomes the legal employer for your team in a country where you do not have an entity — it handles payroll, benefits, contracts and compliance, while you manage the day-to-day work.
An EOR is appropriate when you are entering a new market without an entity, onboarding employees after an acquisition, remedying worker misclassification, or hiring for temporary or project-based roles.
Local employment law determines termination rules, which vary substantially. Notice periods, severance entitlements and the payout of accrued benefits such as untaken holiday differ by country, and may further depend on tenure and the reason for departure within the same jurisdiction. As the legal employer, Remote manages the process: we determine the statutory requirements for the specific case, prepare the necessary documents, conduct the employee discussion, and disburse final wages and severance via payroll. We coordinate with you on the preferred approach and terms.
Yes. Taxation of equity varies by country, and as the legal employer Remote is responsible for ensuring correct treatment. We assess whether your plan is compatible with the employee's country, manage withholding and payroll processing when a grant vests, is exercised or settles, and submit the reports required by that jurisdiction. 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, but you remain responsible for their management and legal employment obligations. An EOR differs: Remote becomes the legal employer, assuming payroll, benefits, compliance and contract obligations, while you continue to direct day-to-day work.
An EOR becomes the legal employer for your team in countries where you lack an entity — it is designed to enable international hiring without establishing a local entity. A PEO is a co-employment model for companies that already have a legal entity (in Remote's case, in the US), sharing employer responsibilities 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.
For example, if you wish to hire a software engineer in Portugal but do not have 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 oversee their work directly.
