Employing in Kyrgyzstan

Grow your team in Kyrgyzstan with Remote

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

 

Companies hiring in Kyrgyzstanare typically required to either own a legal entity in the country or work with a global employment solutions provider to employ on the company's behalf. Developing the processes required to manage payroll, benefits, taxes, and onboarding in countries like Kyrgyzstan can get complicated fast, especially without localised expertise. If you’re looking to start hiring in a country like this, using a global HR platform like Remote makes it easy to hire workers in full compliance with all local legislation. 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.

Risks of misclassification

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