Hiring in Argentina FAQ

How RemoFirst employs in Argentina
It can be prohibitively expensive to establish an entity in every country you want to hire talent in Argentina, so RemoFirst will hire and pay your employee on your behalf while you manage their daily duties. RemoFirst will handle formal HR procedures and employment contracts that adhere to local laws, so that you can simply approve invoices via our platform. When you work with an Employer of Record (EOR) you can compliantly hire the best employees around the world.
How employees in Argentina get paid

Your employee's hours, time off, holidays, bonuses, and commissions are automatically calculated into payroll. RemoFirst will invoice you in either US Dollars (USD), Euros (EUR), British Pounds (GBP), Canadian Dollars (CAD), Australian Dollars (AUD), or Singapore Dollars (SGD) around the 15th of each month to make sure your employees are paid on time. To make it even easier, you can summarize your entire global team's salaries to aggregate them into one payment (instead of many individual payments).

Full-time Employees vs Global Contractors

Unlike full-time employees, contractors work on projects with multiple companies at a given time and are technically self-employed. Full-time employees are solely focused on their employer and usually receive benefits (such as health insurance, equity or stock options, and time off) as an additional form of compensation. While it can be cheaper to work with international contractors instead of paying benefits to a full-time employee, you run the risk of misclassification. It's recommended to work with an EOR for contractor onboarding and payments, so you can know that your international contractors are paid compliantly and on time.

Dependable support for employees

Whenever the employee or employer has a question about, or anything else related to international employment, they can speak with our customer support team to get answers from our team of experts.

More than once, I have had a need or request that was answered not just with a fix, but with a permanent improvement of my service. They go out of their way to give me even better than I ask for, without extra charges. RemoFirst makes it as uncomplicated as possible to have employees in multiple countries. This is a great blessing to our business.

RemoFirst is an amazing platform, everything is extremely user friendly and easy to use compared to other tools that I have been using in the past. Inna and the team were on point and replying to my questions in a more than timely manner as well as making our life super easy! Great people and platform, I'll highly recommend it to my network.

EORs can be really, really complex and there is so many different grey areas involved. But working with RemoFirst, they're able to make things clear and concise. It's been a fantastic relationship and they partner really well with all the teams that need to be involved in our hiring process.

RemoFirst enables me to work remotely and stay compliant in my home country. It’s also very helpful for submitting and managing expenses, making it a great addition to my primary HR platform with its admin features. The platform is simple, intuitive, and easy to navigate, with more than adequate functionality for getting things done efficiently.

“We had an entity that was located in a different country that wanted to hire members in the US without affecting the tax status, having RemoFirst help out by being the EOR was the best solution. The setup of the EOR was very easy and we had a dedicated account manger the entire time. Having a dedicated account manager made resolving issues simpler than it would have been otherwise. Nice touch!”

When we were first looking into partnerships to support our remote team, the complexity and options were overwhelming. RemoFirst was patient and explained how things work, often answering questions that I know were outside of what they technically do. This made me feel informed as a business owner and showed how the team goes above and beyond. Our team members who we've hired using our Remofirst partnership had glowing things to say about the experience.

I had some details to be clarified with the contract, but the staff was very helpful in helping me sort it out. Also, the laptop delivery arranged by RemoFirst was a breeze! The device arrived the next day!
