Expanding into new markets is an exciting step for any business, but it comes with a complex set of challenges—especially when it comes to managing local employment laws, payroll, and compliance. That’s where Employer of Record (EOR) services come into play.

An EOR acts as the legal employer on behalf of a company, handling all HR, payroll, tax, and compliance responsibilities for employees in a foreign country. This allows businesses to hire talent internationally—without setting up a legal entity in each new country.

Whether you're a startup hiring your first remote developer in India or a growing company expanding into Southeast Asia, EOR services can save you time, cost, and legal headaches.
