An Employer of Record (EOR) is fully legal in over 160 countries, but specific jurisdictions (Germany, France, Spain) enforce strict co-employment, employee leasing (AÜG), and duration limits.

15 essential vetting questions and a 100-point RFP scoring framework covering owned entities, local legal counsel, FX margins, SLA guarantees, and employee offboarding portability before signing an EOR contract.

In an Employer of Record arrangement, the EOR is the registered legal employer responsible for payroll, taxes, and labor compliance, while your company is the managing employer directing day-to-day work.

Onboarding global talent through an EOR takes 3 to 5 days in fast-track countries (UK, Canada) and up to 25 days in complex jurisdictions (Brazil, UAE). Here are realistic country-by-country hiring timelines.
