Brazil profile
RemotePeople is a US-headquartered global EOR that employs through its own entity in Brazil. Its Brazilian service brings together CLT employment contracts, payroll, statutory contributions, benefits administration and ongoing HR support. Local operations and substantial overlap with US working hours make it a practical partner for nearshoring, while its international coverage supports businesses hiring in several markets at once.
Its broader Brazil expansion services include recruitment, contractor management, payroll and company incorporation. This gives employers a route from sourcing their first Brazilian hire through EOR employment to building a local operation, with support for the administration that accompanies each stage.
RemotePeople’s expertise in Brazil hiring is demonstrated through the Corpay case study on its website.

Strengths and watch-outs in Brazil
- ✓ Direct employment through its own Brazilian entity combines a local employment structure with a global service relationship. This suits US businesses that want Brazilian nearshore staff supported locally while coordinating HR and expansion from abroad.
- ✓ Corpay provides a concrete example of Brazil forming part of the first stage of a much larger EOR programme. The same relationship grew across more than 40 countries, making it relevant to buyers evaluating both immediate Brazilian hiring and later expansion.
- ✓ Recruitment, EOR, contractor management and incorporation cover several stages of entering Brazil. Employers can source talent, establish CLT employment and plan a future entity within a coordinated service relationship instead of separately sourcing every workstream.
- ✓ The combination of account management and local payroll support is useful for Brazilian teams with changing headcount and variable compensation. Corpay’s wider programme also demonstrates experience adapting payroll workflows as operational requirements become more complex.
- ✗ The lowest advertised Select fee depends on country and employee-salary eligibility. Obtain the actual Brazil rate and separate salary, employer contributions, benefits, recruitment and incorporation charges so the commercial comparison reflects your planned team.
- ✗ An EOR-to-entity expansion involves both company formation and employment changes. Set milestones for the Brazilian company’s registrations, payroll readiness and employee transfers; incorporation alone does not complete the transition for existing EOR staff.

Strengths and watch-outs in the UK
- ✓ Employs UK staff through its own UK company, verifiable on Companies House (13949331), with the group's co-founder and CEO as a director, so there is no third-party partner in the employment chain.
- ✓ Openly published pricing: EOR Select from $199 and EOR Global from $499 per employee per month, plus prices for contractor, payroll and recruitment services.
- ✓ Publishes a 5 to 10 business-day UK onboarding timeline that breaks down the right-to-work, HMRC, pension and payroll stages.
- ✓ Its UK guide covers PAYE and RTI, 15% employer NIC, auto-enrolment, IR35 and the Employment Rights Act 2025 day-one changes. It also offers Contractor of Record for UK contractors, which few EORs provide.
- ✓ Strong review record (G2 4.7/5 from 454, Capterra 4.9/5 from 72, Trustpilot 4.5/5 from 346) and a switching offer with up to 12 months of exit fees covered and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
- ✗ The UK page says RemotePeople holds a Skilled Worker sponsor licence, but neither its UK company nor the RemotePeople name appears on the Home Office register dated 26 October 2026, so sponsorship should be confirmed before relying on it.
- ✗ Setup fees, deposits and offboarding charges are not published and are only confirmed in the proposal. The $199 EOR Select rate depends on country and salary eligibility.
- ✗ A UK-specific G2 review rated the service 5/5 but noted that revising the contract took longer than planned.
- ✗ Its integrations and reporting are less extensive than those of the largest platforms: G2 lists 68 pre-built integrations, so clients with heavy HRIS or finance-system needs should check connectors before signing.

Germany profile
RemotePeople is a global Employer of Record, recruitment, payroll and incorporation provider founded in 2018 by Antoine Boquen and Pierre Pradier, headquartered in New York with an Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore and its European headquarters in Berlin. It states coverage of 150+ countries, 3,000+ client companies and 250+ staff across 30 countries (provider claims).
Its European headquarters is a full office at Skalitzer Str. 85/86 in Berlin-Kreuzberg, where its senior management is based. German staff are employed through its own Berlin GmbH, registered at Amtsgericht Charlottenburg under HRB 221030 B at the same address, with group co-founder and CEO Antoine Boquen and Adrien Kallel as managing directors. The GmbH holds its own current AÜG licence (Erlaubnis zur Arbeitnehmerüberlassung), which an EOR in Germany legally needs and which most global providers do not hold themselves. That in-country presence gives it a strong grasp of the German issues that catch foreign employers out: false self-employment (Scheinselbständigkeit), works council (Betriebsrat) consultation, dismissal protection and the full Lohnsteuer and social-insurance stack. It is also one of the few EORs offering a Contractor of Record service in Germany, which helps manage false self-employment risk.
It issues indefinite (open-ended) contracts as standard and fixed-term contracts under the TzBfG, runs monthly payroll with Lohnsteuer and all five social-insurance branches, and quotes local contracts within 24 to 48 hours. Pricing is published: EOR Flex from $199 per employee per month on monthly billing with no setup fee, EOR Plus from $399 on annual billing with no deposit for five or more employees, and a typical German range of $300 to $600. Beyond EOR it offers recruitment, global payroll and payroll outsourcing for clients with their own entity, Contractor of Record, work visas and immigration support, benefits and GmbH incorporation with an EOR-to-entity transfer. G2 rates it 4.7/5 from 454 reviews and Capterra 4.9/5 from 72, and it is recommended in several Reddit discussions of EOR providers.

Services in Germany
| Employer of Record | Employs German staff through RemotePeople's own Berlin GmbH (HRB 221030 B, Amtsgericht Charlottenburg), which holds its own AÜG licence, so the arrangement is run as licensed employee leasing (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung) rather than through a third-party partner. RemotePeople acts as the legal employer, drafts contracts meeting Nachweisgesetz requirements, registers the employee with the Krankenkasse, Deutsche Rentenversicherung, Bundesagentur für Arbeit and Finanzamt, and issues the Sozialversicherungsausweis, while the client directs day-to-day work. Local contracts are quoted within 24 to 48 hours (provider claim). |
| Payroll, Lohnsteuer and social insurance | Runs monthly German payroll with itemised Lohnabrechnung payslips, withholds Lohnsteuer, solidarity surcharge and church tax, remits wage tax to the Finanzamt by the 10th of the following month, and pays employer and employee contributions to pension, health, unemployment, long-term care and accident insurance plus the insolvency surcharge, applying the 2026 contribution ceilings of EUR 101,400 (pension and unemployment) and EUR 69,750 (health and care). Payroll-only service is available from $25 per employee per month for clients with their own GmbH. |
| AÜG compliance and assignment limits | Assesses AÜG permission, equal-treatment requirements and assignment rules before each placement. The Germany page states the AÜG caps a single assignment with the same client at 18 months and that arrangements are structured to comply with this limit, with the equal treatment principle applying to leased workers after a specified period; the EOR-to-entity transfer service moves employees to the client's own GmbH when the headcount or the assignment limit requires it. |
| Works council and termination management | Handles dismissals under the KSchG with social justification, prior warnings (Abmahnung) and social selection (Sozialauswahl) where required, consults the works council (Betriebsrat) under section 102 BetrVG before any dismissal in establishments that have one, applies statutory notice periods under section 622 BGB and calculates severance under section 1a KSchG; severance and offboarding support is offered as an add-on and legal assistance from local employment counsel from $199 per hour. |
| Contractor engagement and Scheinselbständigkeit | Offers Contractor Management from $29 per contractor per month (localised contracts, tax documents, invoices, payments in 120+ currencies) and Contractor of Record from $199 per contractor per month, under which RemotePeople signs the contract and carries the misclassification risk. The Germany page describes the Scheinselbständigkeit tests applied by the Deutsche Rentenversicherung and customs authorities and the retroactive contribution liability of up to four years, and recommends EOR employment for integrated, ongoing roles. |
| Work visas and immigration | Sponsors work visas as the AÜG-licensed legal employer, including the EU Blue Card (salary threshold EUR 50,700 in 2026), skilled worker visas under the Fachkräfteeinwanderungsgesetz and ICT permits, prepares the qualifying employment contract, coordinates with the Ausländerbehörde and the Bundesagentur für Arbeit, and adds four to twenty weeks to the onboarding timeline; priced per case. |
| Benefits administration | Administers statutory benefits (20 days' minimum annual leave on a five-day week, six weeks' sick pay at 100%, 14 weeks' maternity leave with employer top-up, parental leave) and supplementary benefits such as company pension contributions, meal allowances and additional leave; Global Benefits plans with local health, dental, vision, pension and wellness options are quoted on request. |
| Recruitment in Germany | In-house recruiters source and vet German candidates at 20% of annual salary paid on the candidate's first day, or at 2% of annual salary spread over 12 months when combined with EOR employment; executive search at 25% of annual salary. Shortlists are quoted within five days (provider claim). |
| Entity setup and transition | Company incorporation in Germany, ongoing entity management and EOR-to-entity transfer at custom pricing, with new local contracts, benefits and tenure carried over and the transfer timed around payroll; the Germany page states that employees are moved to the client's new GmbH by mutual agreement. |
Strengths and watch-outs in Germany
- ✓ Employs through its own German GmbH in Berlin, verifiable on the commercial register (HRB 221030 B, Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, active since 2020), whose managing director Antoine J. D. Boquen is the group's co-founder and CEO, and whose registered address at Skalitzer Str. is RemotePeople's European headquarters with senior management on site, so there is no third-party partner in the German employment chain.
- ✓ Holds its own current AÜG licence (Erlaubnis zur Arbeitnehmerüberlassung), which most global EOR providers do not hold themselves, so German hires are employed as licensed employee leasing in RemotePeople's own name and the licensed entity can sponsor work visas directly.
- ✓ Its in-country presence and Germany page show a working knowledge of the issues that trip up foreign employers, including false self-employment (Scheinselbständigkeit) tests and liabilities — it is also one of the few EORs offering a Contractor of Record service in Germany, which helps clients manage that risk — works council (Betriebsrat) consultation under section 102 BetrVG, the 18-month AÜG assignment limit and equal treatment, KSchG dismissal protection and the full Lohnsteuer and social insurance stack with 2026 rates and ceilings.
- ✓ Publishes its pricing openly: EOR Flex from $199 per employee per month with no setup fee and no minimum headcount, EOR Plus from $399 with no deposit, a German fee range of $300 to $600 and a worked German cost example, where many EOR providers quote only on request.
- ✓ Quotes local contracts within 24 to 48 hours and a start within 48 hours of agreed paperwork, and sets out a step-by-step German registration timeline so buyers know what the Krankenkasse, Rentenversicherung and Finanzamt stages involve.
- ✓ Service breadth covers recruitment, EOR, contractor management and Contractor of Record, payroll for own entities, visas, benefits and incorporation with an EOR-to-entity transfer, backed by a strong review record of 4.7/5 from 454 reviews on G2, 4.9/5 from 72 reviews on Capterra, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certification, and recommendations in Reddit discussions of EOR providers.
- ✗ Because an EOR arrangement in Germany is employee leasing under the AÜG, an assignment to one client is capped at 18 months (Höchstüberlassungsdauer), after which the employee must move to the client's own entity or another arrangement; this limit applies to every EOR operating in Germany, not only RemotePeople, but it means long-term German hires need an exit plan from the outset.
- ✗ Its integrations and reporting features are not as strong as those of some other prominent providers: G2 lists 68 integrations for RemotePeople and the pricing page mentions accounting exports only for the US payroll product, so clients with heavy HRIS or finance-system integration needs should check the available connectors before signing.
Reviews
- G2 overall: 4.7/5 from 454 reviews (read on g2.com, 8 October 2026; page last modified 6 October 2026). The listing records German among the supported languages and 68 integrations. No Germany-specific review could be identified on the pages accessible to the directory: Not published.
- Capterra: 4.9/5 from 72 reviews, as reported on RemotePeople's about page (reviewed 19 September 2026). Testimonials on the pricing page include Jan Luca E., 5/5, 16 October 2023: "We have so far onboarded more than 5 EOR and everything was super smooth and fast", and Chris G., 5/5, 12 April 2025, who wrote that the EOR service "turned what could have been months of research into a two-week onboarding sprint".
- Reddit: RemotePeople is recommended in several community discussions of EOR providers, including a thread on alternatives to Deel (https://www.reddit.com/r/remotework/comments/1s4srk4/looking_for_deel_alternatives/), a thread on the top Employer of Record services in 2026 (https://www.reddit.com/r/internationalbusiness/comments/1rdq825/top_employer_of_record_eor_services_in_2026_for/) and a thread on how realistic it is for companies to hire across borders (https://www.reddit.com/r/RemoteJobs/comments/1wafvv5/how_realistic_is_it_for_companies_to_hire/).
Reviews are reported as found and are not verified by the directory. G2 review bodies could not be read individually by the directory, so the Germany-specific search returned no result; Reddit threads are described from their titles and the editor's record and were not opened.

China profile
RemotePeople is a global Employer of Record, recruitment, payroll and incorporation provider founded in 2018 by Antoine Boquen and Pierre Pradier, headquartered in New York with an Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore and its European headquarters in Berlin. It states coverage of 150+ countries, 3,000+ client companies and 250+ staff across 30 countries.
RemotePeople established its China EOR service when the company was founded in 2018. It is one of the few China EORs that operates through its own registered entity rather than subcontracting to a local provider: its own Chinese company, unified social credit code 91310000MA1GC8625Q, signs the labour contract. It operates from its China headquarters at 100 Yutong Road, InterContinental Business Center, 33/F, Shanghai, and through registered branches in Shenzhen, Chengdu, Beijing and Guangzhou, with a large local headcount. RemotePeople is the only EOR officially recognised by the Chinese Government, through a strategic partnership with the Ministry of Commerce, and it also has a strong presence in the Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions. Service runs through a dedicated account manager backed by local HR and payroll specialists who apply each city’s contribution bases; recruitment and WFOE incorporation are offered in-house.
Pricing is published: EOR Flex starts at US$199 per employee per month on monthly billing with no setup fee, with salary and statutory costs passed through, and EOR Plus from US$399 on annual billing with no deposit for five or more employees. Local contracts are quoted within 24 to 48 hours. G2 rates it 4.7/5 from 454 reviews and Capterra 4.9/5 from 72, and it is recommended in several Reddit discussions of EOR providers.

Services in China
| Employer of Record | Employs Chinese staff through RemotePeople’s own Chinese company (unified social credit code 91310000MA1GC8625Q) from its Shanghai regional headquarters and registered branches in Shenzhen, Chengdu, Beijing and Guangzhou, rather than through a subcontracted FESCO or other local agency. RemotePeople drafts the labour contract, registers the employee for social insurance and the housing fund in the city of work, and acts as legal employer while the client directs day-to-day work. Local contracts are quoted within 24 to 48 hours. |
| Payroll, IIT and social insurance | Runs monthly China payroll with bilingual payslips, withholds individual income tax under the cumulative method and applies the preferential annual bonus treatment where it applies, and pays employer and employee contributions to pension, medical, unemployment and work-injury insurance plus the housing provident fund at each city’s contribution base and rate. Payroll-only service is available for clients with their own Chinese entity. |
| Regime and compliance | Confirms in writing for each engagement which Chinese company signs the contract and under which regime, dispatch or outsourcing, the hire is placed, and manages probation, termination and statutory severance under the Labour Contract Law. RemotePeople is the only EOR officially recognised by the Chinese Government, through a strategic partnership with the Ministry of Commerce. |
| Recruitment | In-house recruitment for China roles, so a client can search, hire and employ through one provider; RemotePeople states it is the only global EOR with recruitment done in-house. |
| WFOE incorporation and transition | Incorporates a wholly foreign-owned enterprise for clients who outgrow the EOR and transfers EOR staff to it, preserving continuous service for severance and open-ended contract purposes. |
| Hong Kong and Macau | Employs in the Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions under the same provider, on Hong Kong contracts with MPF and under Macau labour law respectively. |
| Work permits and visas | Assesses and supports Foreigner’s Work Permit and Z-visa applications for foreign nationals, on a case-by-case basis depending on city, category and the employing entity’s quota. |
Strengths and watch-outs in China
- ✓ Its own Chinese company signs the labour contract (unified social credit code 91310000MA1GC8625Q), with no subcontracted local provider in the employment chain, where most global EORs employ in China through a FESCO or an undisclosed partner.
- ✓ Shanghai regional headquarters since 2018, when the China service was established with the company, with registered branches in Shenzhen, Chengdu, Beijing and Guangzhou and a large local headcount, so hires in the main business cities are employed through a registered presence in that city.
- ✓ The only EOR officially recognised by the Chinese Government, through a strategic partnership with the Ministry of Commerce, which no other provider in this directory can state.
- ✓ Strong presence in the Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Regions under the same provider, so a Greater China team can sit with one EOR on three separate payroll regimes.
- ✓ Dedicated account manager and local HR and payroll specialists working Chinese hours, applying each city’s contribution bases rather than a national percentage, with recruitment and WFOE incorporation in-house so a hire can move from search to EOR contract to the client’s own entity without changing provider.
- ✓ Publishes its pricing openly: EOR Flex from US$199 per employee per month with no setup fee and salary and statutory costs passed through, where most China providers quote only on request. G2 4.7/5 from 454 reviews and Capterra 4.9/5 from 72.
- ✗ Confirm in writing under which regime, dispatch or outsourcing, your hire is placed; this applies to every EOR in China, but the answer determines whether the ten per cent cap and the temporary, auxiliary or substitute test apply to your role.
- ✗ Total cost depends on a city-specific quote; contribution bases and housing fund rates differ widely between cities, and hires outside the five registered cities are employed through the nearest branch with social insurance paid where that branch is registered.
- ✗ Work permits for foreign nationals need case-by-case discussion, as with any China EOR, because the permit is tied to the employing company’s registration, category and quota in a specific city.

The company moved its registered office from 12 place Dauphine, Paris, to La Grande Arche, Puteaux (La Défense) in May 2026, and was registered at Nanterre on 27 July 2026. Its 2025 accounts show revenue of EUR 13.3 million, an average of 89 employees and EUR 12.5 million of salaries and social charges, which is consistent with French EOR employment. It applies the Syntec agreement (IDCC 1486), so hires are on standard CDI or CDD contracts rather than portage or temporary-agency contracts.

It gives a one- to two-week onboarding timeline, or six to eight weeks more for non-EU permits. Pricing is published globally: EOR Select from $199 per employee per month for selected countries and salary ranges, and EOR Global from $499. Setup fees and deposits are confirmed in the proposal, and the France page cites a market range of $300 to $600. G2 rates it 4.7/5 from 454 reviews, Capterra 4.9/5 from 72 and Trustpilot 4.5/5 from 304.

Strengths and watch-outs in France
- ✓ Employs French hires through its own SAS, verifiable on the register (RCS Nanterre 948 350 871), with the group co-founder and CEO as Président and 2025 accounts showing EUR 13.3 million revenue and an average of 89 employees, so there is no third-party partner in the employment chain.
- ✓ Direct employment under the Syntec agreement on standard CDI or CDD contracts, rather than portage salarial, so the portage salary floor, expertise requirement and 36-month mission limit do not apply.
- ✓ Publishes its pricing: EOR Select from $199 and EOR Global from $499 per employee per month, plus prices for recruitment, contractors, payroll and legal help, where many providers quote only on request.
- ✓ Detailed France page covering DPAE, URSSAF, AGIRC-ARRCO, mutuelle, 2026 contribution rates, a worked cost example and work-permit routes, with a stated one- to two-week onboarding timeline.
- ✓ One provider for recruitment, EOR, contractor services, payroll, visas and incorporation with entity transfer, backed by 4.7/5 from 454 G2 reviews, 4.9/5 from 72 on Capterra and 4.5/5 from 304 on Trustpilot.
- ✗ The France page does not name the French employing entity, and the registered office at La Défense is a domiciliation address, so buyers need the register or the proposal to identify the counterparty.
- ✗ Whether a French hire qualifies for EOR Select at $199 depends on salary range and is only confirmed in the proposal; setup fees and deposits are also not published.
- ✗ The French entity is new to its current registry: the seat moved from Paris to Puteaux in May 2026 and was registered at Nanterre in July 2026, with a management change (the Directeur général left) at the same time.
- ✗ The France page is not fully consistent: it gives six to eight weeks for work permits in one section and two to four weeks in an FAQ, and 30 working days of annual leave in one place and 'typically 25 days' in another.

Netherlands profile
RemotePeople is a global Employer of Record, recruitment, payroll and incorporation provider. Antoine Boquen and Pierre Pradier founded it in New York in November 2018. It states coverage of more than 150 countries and more than 3,000 client organisations, and holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification (provider claims). In July 2026 it launched a Dutch-language website for Dutch and Belgian clients.
In the Netherlands it employs staff through its own Dutch B.V., KvK 86512900, whose registered legal name differs from the RemotePeople trading name. The KvK register shows the head office at Kerkenbos 1065, 6546 BB Nijmegen, with payrolling and HR services as its activities. On 26 October 2026 the KvK Waadi Check showed the B.V. as registered to supply workers commercially (SBI 78201). It was not found in the SNA (NEN 4400-1) register. The Netherlands page says the fee covers recognised-sponsor status for work permits, but KvK 86512900 was not on the IND recognised-sponsor register updated on 5 October 2026, so that claim is unverified. Directors and share capital are not shown in free register sources.
The Netherlands page quotes a flat $300 to $600 per employee per month with no setup fees, no long-term commitment and 30% ruling applications included. It estimates a compliant hire in seven to ten business days and highly skilled migrant permits in two to four weeks. The global price list gives EOR Select from $199 (selected countries and salary ranges) and EOR Global from $499, with setup fees and deposits confirmed in the proposal. G2 rates it 4.7/5 from 454 reviews and Capterra 4.9/5 from 72.

Services in Netherlands
| Employer of Record | Employs Dutch staff through its own B.V. (KvK 86512900), which is Waadi-registered. It prepares the Dutch or English contract under Article 7:655 of the Civil Code, matches it to the applicable CAO, registers the employee with the UWV and Belastingdienst, and enrols them in the industry pension fund where the CAO requires it. The Netherlands page quotes a flat $300 to $600 per employee per month. |
| Payroll, wage tax and employee insurance | Runs monthly Dutch payroll with Dutch-language payslips and files the monthly wage tax return (aangifte loonheffingen). It administers Zvw, WW (AWf), WIA (Aof), Whk and Wko contributions, pays the 8% holiday allowance and issues the annual statement (jaaropgaaf). Clients with their own entity can use payroll-only from $25 per employee per month. |
| Immigration and the 30% ruling | Visa and immigration support in more than 80 countries. The Netherlands page describes highly skilled migrant, EU Blue Card, ICT and orientation-year permit applications. It also states recognised-sponsor status, which could not be matched to the B.V. on the IND register. 30% ruling applications are included in the Dutch EOR fee. |
| Recruitment | In-house recruitment with shortlists in five days, at 20% of annual salary payable on the first day, or 2% of annual salary a month for 12 months when combined with EOR. Executive search is 25%. |

| Incorporation and EOR-to-entity transfer | Dutch BV incorporation and transfer of EOR employees to the client's own entity. The Netherlands page suggests this is typically worth it at around 15 to 20 employees. |
Strengths and watch-outs in Netherlands
- ✓ Employs through its own Dutch B.V. (KvK 86512900), which the KvK Waadi Check shows as registered to supply workers, with its registered head office in Nijmegen.

- ✗ The Dutch B.V. was not found in the SNA (NEN 4400-1) register. Some Dutch clients require SNA certification from labour suppliers to limit liability for wage tax and social-security debts.
- ✗ The recognised-sponsor status claimed on the Netherlands page could not be matched to KvK 86512900 on the IND register (5 October 2026 update). Buyers hiring highly skilled migrants should ask which entity files the application.
- ✗ The Netherlands page says there are no setup fees, but the global pricing page leaves setup fees, deposits and FX charges to the proposal. Confirm them in writing.

Strengths and watch-outs in Spain
- ✓ Published pricing, with EOR Select from $199 and EOR Global from $499, plus prices for recruitment, contractors, payroll and legal help, where many EOR providers quote only on request.
- ✓ A detailed Spain page with a worked employer-cost example, 2026 contribution rates, contract rules after the 2021 reform, termination and severance rules, and a step-by-step onboarding timeline.
- ✓ Immigration routes are set out explicitly: HQP permits in about 20 working days, EU Blue Card and standard work authorisation sponsorship, plus guidance on the digital nomad visa.
- ✓ Recruitment, EOR, Contractor of Record, payroll and SL incorporation with EOR-to-entity transfer from one provider.
- ✓ A strong review record of 4.7/5 from 454 G2 reviews and 4.9/5 from 72 on Capterra, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II, and EOR Switch cover of up to 12 months of exit fees.
- ✗ The Spain page does not name the Spanish employing entity, its CIF or its address, and no ETT authorisation under the RemotePeople name appears in the public register, so buyers need the proposal to confirm the model.
- ✗ Whether a Spanish hire qualifies for the $199 EOR Select tier is decided case by case. The Spain page's own fee ranges are inconsistent ($300 to $600 against $500 to $900), so the real Spanish fee is only clear in the proposal.
- ✗ Setup fees, deposits and payroll funding terms are not published as amounts and are set in the proposal.
- ✗ Integration depth is more limited than at the largest platforms, with 68 integrations listed on G2, so buyers with heavy HRIS or finance-system needs should check connectors.
Reviews
- G2: 4.7/5 from 454 reviews (read 26 October 2026; page last modified 21 October 2026). The listing records Spanish among supported languages and 68 integrations. No Spain-specific review could be identified.
- Capterra: 4.9/5 from 72 reviews, as reported by RemotePeople; the Capterra page was not opened by the directory.
- Pricing-page testimonials: Jan Luca E., 5/5, 16 October 2023 ("We have so far onboarded more than 5 EOR and everything was super smooth and fast") and Chris G., 5/5, 12 April 2025 (the EOR service "turned what could have been months of research into a two-week onboarding sprint").
- Trustpilot and Google: not verified; Trustpilot blocked automated access. The earlier 4.5/5 Trustpilot figure on this page could not be confirmed.

It files with the voivodeship office, pays the PLN 50-200 administrative fee, and matches the employment terms to the permit. Visa support is priced per case; permits add four to twelve weeks to onboarding. |
| Terminations and offboarding | Handles notice periods under Articles 34 and 36 of the Kodeks pracy (two weeks to three months), the written justification required since the 2023 reforms, trade-union consultation, and protected periods such as pregnancy and pre-retirement. Statutory severance is one to three months' pay, capped at 15 times the minimum wage. Severance and offboarding support is an add-on, with legal assistance from $199 per hour. |
| Recruitment in Poland | In-house recruiters source candidates through local networks and portals such as Pracuj.pl and LinkedIn and benchmark compensation. Fees are 20% of annual salary paid on the first day; 2% a month for 12 months (24% in total) when combined with EOR; and 25% for executive search. Shortlists are promised in five days (provider claim). |
| Contractors and misclassification | Contractor Management from $29 per contractor per month, and Contractor of Record from $199 per contractor per month, under which RemotePeople signs the contract and carries the misclassification risk. The Poland page sets out the Article 22 §1¹ test, the risk of PIP and ZUS reclassification with up to five years of back contributions, and recommends EOR employment for integrated, ongoing roles. |
| Entity setup and transfer | Offers incorporation of a Polish sp. z o.o. (PLN 5,000 minimum share capital), ongoing entity management, and EOR-to-entity transfer at custom pricing. New contracts are issued and tenure is carried over, and the Poland page suggests an own entity once headcount passes about fifteen. |
Strengths and watch-outs in Poland
- ✓ Publishes its prices, where many EOR providers quote only on request: EOR Select from $199 per employee per month, EOR Global from $499, a Polish fee range of $299 to $599, and a worked Polish cost example (about 132% of gross salary at USD 5,000).
- ✓ Its Poland EOR page, published 24 October 2026, is detailed and current. It covers 2026 ZUS rates and ceilings, PIT brackets, PPK, the Article 151 overtime premiums, the 2023 probation and termination reforms, severance caps and the Pay Transparency Directive timetable.
- ✓ Gives clear onboarding timelines: one to three weeks for EU nationals, a first hire in as little as five business days, and separate estimates for work permits, the Single Permit and the Ukrainian simplified route.
- ✓ Recruitment and employment come from one provider: in-house recruiters work at 20% of salary, or 2% a month when combined with EOR, alongside Contractor of Record, payroll outsourcing, visas and EOR-to-entity transfer.
- ✓ Strong review record and certifications: 4.7/5 from 454 reviews on G2 and 4.9/5 from 72 on Capterra, with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 (provider statement).
- ✗ The Poland page does not name the Polish employing company or give its KRS or NIP, so buyers cannot check the employer in the National Court Register before signing.
- ✗ It is not shown whether the Polish employer holds a KRAZ entry. Without one, the client may be limited in how far it can direct the employee's day-to-day work under the temporary-work rules.
- ✗ Pricing has changed recently: the pricing page now lists EOR Select from $199 (country and salary conditions apply) and EOR Global from $499, while the about page still refers to EOR Flex at $199. Setup fees and deposits are confirmed only in the proposal, so check the Polish rate in writing.
- ✗ No Polish office address or Polish-language customer support is published, and G2 lists 68 integrations, fewer than larger HR platforms offer.
Reviews
- G2 overall: 4.7/5 from 454 reviews (read on g2.com, 26 October 2026; page last modified 21 October 2026). The listing records Polish among the supported languages and 68 integrations. No Poland-specific review could be identified on the pages the directory could access.
- Capterra: 4.9/5 from 72 reviews (listing last updated 26 August 2026). Capterra's summary describes support as responsive and onboarding as easy and fast.
- Provider claim: 4.8/5 across 500+ verified reviews and 200+ awards (RemotePeople site navigation); not independently verified.

Strengths and watch-outs in Global
- ✓ Its own entities in key markets are verifiable on public registers, including a Berlin GmbH holding its own AÜG licence, a UK company, a Shanghai-based Chinese entity with branches, a French SAS and a Dutch B.V., so in those countries RemotePeople is the direct legal employer.
- ✓ Low published entry price: EOR Select from $199 and EOR Global from $499 per employee per month, below the $599 list price of several large platforms, with a published fee for every main service.
- ✓ Combines recruitment and employment: in-house recruiters, executive search and Recruit + EOR mean one provider can find, hire and employ the person.
- ✓ Strong review record (G2 4.7/5 from 454, Capterra 4.9/5 from 72, Trustpilot 4.5 from 346), plus SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001.
- ✓ Wide range of services beyond EOR: Contractor of Record, payroll, US PEO, visas in 80+ countries, incorporation and EOR-to-entity transfer, and EOR Switch with up to 12 months of exit fees covered.
- ✗ No total count of owned entities is published, and its comparison pages ('entities in 150+ countries') go further than its own FAQ, which says partners are used in some locations. The legal employer has to be confirmed for each country.
- ✗ Setup fees, deposits and offboarding charges are confirmed only in the proposal, and the $199 EOR Select price applies only to selected countries and salary ranges.
- ✗ Some country pages (for example Spain, Poland and Nigeria) do not name the employing entity.
- ✗ The UK page's claim of a Skilled Worker sponsor licence could not be matched to the Home Office register dated 26 October 2026.
- ✗ Its smaller scale than the largest venture-backed platforms (250+ staff) may matter to buyers who need very large deployments in many countries at once.

India profile
RemotePeople is headquartered in New York, but its origins are in Asia and its Indian operations date to 2018. Its local team in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, has been led by country manager Sujit Samal since 2021, bringing recruitment, employment administration and ongoing client support together in country. The company has used its own Indian infrastructure since at least 2022, when Uplift Resources Management India Private Limited was incorporated.
That Indian company, registered under CIN U74140MH2022PTC383493, provides the local corporate foundation for the service. Director Sujit Kumar Samal leads the Indian operation, whose registered office is in Thane, Maharashtra. RemotePeople combines this local operation with an international platform covering employment contracts, payroll, benefits and recruitment. Its EOR Global service starts at US$499 per employee per month, with EOR Select starting at US$199 for eligible countries and salary ranges.
Uplift Resources Management India Private Limited was incorporated on 26 May 2022 and is registered with ROC Mumbai II. Its registered office is on the 15th Floor of Dev Corpora, Pokhran Road No. 1, Eastern Express Highway, opposite Cadburys, Thane, Maharashtra 400601.

Colombia profile
RemotePeople combines Colombian EOR employment with recruitment and international payroll services, giving employers a route from finding a candidate to managing their employment. Its local entity is Horizonte Recursos Humanos Colombia S.A.S., registered under NIT 901694054-3 and based at Carrera 16 #93-11, Oficina 402, Bogotá D.C. Through this operation, Colombian contracts, payroll, statutory benefits and employee administration sit within a broader international workforce service.
That combination is useful when a business wants to recruit in Colombia and retain the same provider for onboarding and ongoing employment, or when its Colombian hires form part of a team spread across several countries. The service can also connect hiring with immigration and business-expansion support. Pricing should be matched to the intended role and country arrangement: the published global service starts at $499 per employee per month, while the $199 Select tier has country and salary eligibility conditions.

Canada profile
RemotePeople combines Canadian EOR services with recruitment, payroll and international employment support. Although the group is headquartered in New York, it has substantial headcount in Toronto and operates through its own Canadian federal corporation. This gives the Canadian service an operating team as well as a local employing structure, so clients can connect candidate recruitment with the contracts, payroll, benefits and employee support needed after hiring. The same relationship can also support companies adding employees in other countries.
Its Canadian corporation is registered under number 13082831 and incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The local office is at 111 Peter Street, Suite 700, Toronto, ON M5V 2H1. From that base, RemotePeople supports the administration of Canadian employment while the client manages the employee’s day-to-day work. Recruitment and immigration assistance can sit alongside the EOR engagement where required, making the offering useful both for a company hiring its first Canadian employee and for an established international team expanding its local presence.

Egypt profile
RemotePeople combines recruitment and Employer of Record services, helping companies find talent in Egypt and employ it through its own local entity. The service brings candidate sourcing, employment contracts, payroll, benefits and ongoing HR support into one relationship, with wider support for international hiring and immigration.
Its work with Real Essentials illustrates that combination. The US apparel company used RemotePeople to recruit and employ quality inspectors across Egypt, China and India, giving it local quality-control teams close to its manufacturing operations. Production Manager Rochelle LaNeve describes a relationship that began in 2021 and supported the business as its international requirements grew.
RemotePeople is particularly relevant when a company needs both help finding Egyptian candidates and a way to employ them. Its broader platform also placed 69th in G2’s 2026 Fastest Growing Products list, complementing its practical recruitment and employment offering.

- ✓ International payroll, benefits and immigration support can complement an expanding team.
- ✗ Egypt pricing requires a tailored quote rather than a fixed country tariff.
