Frequently asked questions
Each guide covers the core compliance requirements for hiring in that country: statutory benefits, minimum wage, paid leave entitlements, termination and notice period rules, payroll tax obligations, and any mandatory 13th-month pay or social contributions. This gives you a country-specific breakdown you can act on without needing to consult local counsel for the basics.
No — that's the core problem an Employer of Record (EOR) solves. RemoFirst becomes the legal employer of record in the country, handling local payroll, tax withholding, and compliance, while you keep day-to-day management of the employee. This lets you hire in a new country in days instead of the months it typically takes to incorporate a local entity.
Total employment cost varies significantly by country because employer-side payroll taxes, social security contributions, and mandatory benefits differ from place to place. Check the specific country guide for exact employer contribution rates, or use RemoFirst's cost calculator for a country-specific Employer of Record estimate.
Employment laws — tax rates, minimum wage, leave requirements — change frequently, so the guides are reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis to reflect current regulations. That said, for a specific hire or compliance decision, it's worth confirming current details with the RemoFirst team, since law changes can take effect faster than any published guide.
