How to choose
Start with pricing: EOR fees in the Philippines vary, so confirm what is included beyond the base fee, such as statutory benefit administration and government remittances. Check that the provider handles all mandatory contributions correctly, including SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG, since errors create real liability. Consider how the provider handles the 13th-month pay obligation, which is legally required and due by December. If you also engage independent contractors, verify whether the provider offers a separate contractor management product to keep classifications clean. Weigh support hours and time-zone coverage, because the Philippines runs on PST and local HR issues need timely responses.

Best EOR in Philippines: common questions
What does an EOR in the Philippines actually do?
The EOR becomes the legal employer of your worker in the Philippines, running payroll in Philippine pesos, filing taxes with the BIR, and remitting statutory contributions to SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG. Your company retains day-to-day direction of the worker while the EOR carries the legal and compliance obligations.
Is the 13th-month pay mandatory in the Philippines?
Yes. Philippine law requires employers to pay a 13th-month bonus equivalent to one twelfth of an employee's basic annual salary, due no later than December 24 each year. A compliant EOR will calculate and remit this automatically on your behalf.
How much does an EOR in the Philippines typically cost?
Providers generally charge either a flat monthly fee per employee or a percentage of the employee's gross salary. Flat fees in the broader EOR market commonly start from a few hundred US dollars per employee per month, though the total cost depends on the provider and what is included in the plan.
