Welcome to RemoFirst 🎉
We’re thrilled to partner with you as you grow your team across borders. Hiring globally can feel complex at first, but our goal is to make it as seamless as hiring locally. This guide will walk you through the essentials, highlight the most helpful resources, and point you to the right tools to get started with confidence.

What is an EOR?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is an organization that helps companies expand internationally by employing and paying employees on behalf of another company. EORs assume the responsibility for all formal employment tasks, including payroll processes and compliance documentation.
Simply put, using an Employer of Record (EOR) allows companies to legally and efficiently employ employees in other countries without having to set up a local entity or risk violating local employment laws.
We handle compliance, payroll, benefits, and local HR obligations.
You manage day-to-day work, performance, and team direction.

This lets you scale globally without the cost and complexity of opening local entities.

Things to Consider When Hiring Abroad
When building a global team, there are a few important factors to keep in mind:
Local compliance: Every country has unique employment laws, benefits requirements, and tax obligations.
Payroll & payments: Timing, currency, and method of payment may differ depending on the country.
Benefits & perks: Health insurance, vacation, and statutory benefits vary widely and may be mandatory.
Cultural norms: Expectations around work hours, holidays, and communication can differ from country to country.
Offboarding: Notice periods and severance rules are often more regulated abroad than in domestic markets.
