Employer of Record

Hire Anywhere in the World — Without Setting Up a Legal Entity

An Employer of Record lets you hire international employees or contractors quickly and compliantly — without incorporating in a new country. I help you find the right EOR for your situation.

What Is an Employer of Record?

A PEO co-employs your domestic workforce. An EOR goes a step further — it becomes the legal employer of your international hires. That means the EOR handles payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance in the local country, while your team member does the actual work for you.

EORs are the right solution when you want to hire in a country where you don’t have a registered legal entity — and you don’t want to wait 3–6 months (and spend $15,000+) to set one up.

EOR vs PEO — Quick Distinction

A PEO requires you to have a U.S. legal entity and co-employs your domestic workforce. An EOR acts as the legal employer in a foreign country — no entity required. If you’re hiring internationally, EOR is usually the right starting point.

When Does an EOR Make Sense?

🌍

You want to hire internationally

You’ve found a great candidate abroad but don’t have a legal entity in their country. An EOR gets them on payroll compliantly — often within days.

You need to move fast

Setting up a foreign entity takes months. An EOR can get your new hire compliant and paid in a fraction of the time — no incorporation required.

🧪

You’re testing a new market

Not ready to commit to a permanent entity? An EOR lets you pilot a market, hire locally, and keep your options open before making a larger investment.


How I Help With EOR

EOR providers vary significantly — in geographic coverage, pricing models, local compliance depth, and quality of in-country HR support. I help you cut through the noise, identify the right provider for your specific countries and headcount, and negotiate terms on your behalf.

I’ve worked with businesses hiring in the UK, Canada, Germany, Australia, India, and dozens of other countries. If you’re not sure whether EOR is the right structure for your situation — or how it compares to setting up a local entity — that’s exactly the kind of question I can help you think through.
