Estimate the cost of hiring through an Employer of Record

These monthly estimates use the same salary and employer-cost assumptions for each provider. A line marked Not disclosed is a fee we could not source, so we leave it out rather than guess. Totals include known lines only. Your quote may differ because of fees, negotiated terms or country-specific contribution rules. See the fee transparency index →

Employer burden is statutory employer contributions, 2025: indicative, not strictly comparable across countries (different bases and ceilings). EOR fee is the lowest published base price. A security deposit is cash held and refundable, so it sits outside the monthly cost; an off-cycle run is a per-event fee. Totals exclude any line marked Not disclosed. Figures shown in USD. Always confirm exact costs with the provider.
