Where to start

Three ways to hire in Argentina

Own entity

Set up your own legal entity and employ people directly. Maximum control and the lowest per head cost at scale, but it takes months to establish and carries ongoing legal, payroll and accounting overhead.

Best for large, permanent headcount.
EORfastest

Hire through a provider's existing local entity. They become the legal employer on paper while you direct the day to day work. Compliant in days, with no entity to set up.

Best for 1 to 50 hires, for speed, or to test a market.
Contractor

Engage the person as an independent contractor. The fastest and cheapest route, but they are not your employee, and misclassification carries real back pay and penalty risk, especially in protective markets.

Best for genuinely independent, short term work.

The differentiator

What an EOR handles in Argentina

An EOR removes the entity and the payroll machinery. It does not remove your obligations as the people manager.

obligationeor coverswhat that means for you
Legal employer of record● fullThe EOR's local entity is the employer on paper. No entity setup required.
Payroll, tax & social security● fullGross-to-net, statutory withholding and employer contributions remitted locally.
Compliant local contract● fullDrafted to local labour law and language requirements.
Statutory severance on exit● partialThe EOR computes and processes it, but the cost is billed to you (often pre-funded).
Termination decision & risk● partialThe EOR runs the legal process; the business reason, timing and exposure stay yours.
Work permits / visas (foreigners)● partialSome providers sponsor, many don't. Confirm per provider in the table below.
Performance management● noneDay-to-day direction, reviews and PIPs are entirely on your side.
Equity / ESOP administration● noneCross-border equity handling sits outside standard EOR scope.
