Employer of Record for International Hires
Employ people in countries where you do not have a local entity. Through an Employer of Record arrangement, they can be employed locally while you continue to direct their role and day-to-day work.
HOW THE SOLUTION
WORKS
Understand the hire and country
We establish the location, role, start date, compensation and working arrangement from the outset.
Confirm the employment route
We review the circumstances to establish whether EOR, payroll or another employment structure best fits the requirement.
Prepare employment and onboarding
We coordinate the agreed EOR structure, documentation, payroll and benefits ahead of the employee's start date.
Support ongoing employment
Payroll, employee administration and support continue for as long as the EOR arrangement remains in place.
You have found the person. Your local entity is not there yet.
Setting up an entity for one hire or a small team may not make commercial sense. Akkar provides the Employer of Record route.
• Hiring where you do not have a local employing entity
• Employing one person or a small international team
• Testing a new market before establishing locally
• Hiring while your own local infrastructure is being established
• Moving contractors into employment where appropriate

International hiring can move faster than corporate infrastructure. An EOR creates a local employment structure around the worker without requiring the client to establish its own entity first. Akkar keeps employment, payroll and employee support connected through one human-led relationship.

What this solution delivers
The employee is employed through the agreed Employer of Record arrangement while remaining operationally embedded within your organisation.
Employment agreements and onboarding documentation are coordinated around the country, role and agreed employment structure, with appropriate local specialist input where required.
You manage the person's role, priorities and day-to-day work. The EOR structure handles the agreed local employment administration around them.
Salary, statutory deductions and agreed payroll requirements are administered through the local employment arrangement.
Applicable statutory and agreed employee benefits are coordinated according to the country and employment package.
Employment documentation, required checks, payroll details and benefit arrangements are prepared before the employee starts.
You and the employee have a clear point of contact for agreed employment, payroll and administrative questions throughout the arrangement.
Salary changes, contract updates, role changes and other agreed employment requirements are coordinated as circumstances evolve.
If you later establish your own employing entity, Akkar can coordinate the transition away from the EOR arrangement.
