## FAQ

Published EOR fees in Germany start from $99/mo and run to from $699/mo, depending on the provider. Employer social security of 20.86% comes on top of salary, so compare the all-in monthly cost in the table rather than the fee alone.

### What notice and severance apply when ending a contract in Germany?

The notice period is 10 weeks, and severance averages 11.6 weeks according to World Bank data from 2019. Ask your EOR who handles the process and who bears the cost if a dismissal is disputed.

Annual leave is 20 days under national rules. Maternity leave is 14 weeks and parental leave is 44 weeks, so your EOR contract should reflect all three.
