Hiring abroad now? Tell us the country, team size and visa need: we rank the providers that fit your hire and get you quotes.
Get matchedOnly 8 of the 93 employer of record providers we track publish all 8↗ things a buyer needs before signing on their own website. The median provider publishes 4. The full ranking, with every tick linked to the provider page that states it, is the EOR Transparency Index.
Choosing an employer of record usually starts with the monthly fee, but the fee is only one of the costs. A security deposit can hold a month or more of an employee's full cost before the first payroll runs, an offboarding fee is charged when someone leaves, and a currency margin is added to every invoice you pay in another currency. A provider that publishes these lets you compare before you speak to sales. One that does not leaves them to the contract.
What the index counts
For every provider on the board, the index checks whether its own public pages state each of these 8↗ items:
- Its EOR price, as a starting price or its published plans ( all prices)
- How many countries it employs in
- Which countries, as a list on its own site
- Its security deposit terms ( deposits and fees)
- Its setup fee
- Its offboarding fee
- How it converts currency
- Whether it sponsors work visas ( visa sponsorship)
An item counts whatever the answer is: a provider that states "no deposit" scores the same as one that states "one month". The index measures disclosure, not price or quality, and no referral program affects it. Every item comes from the same cited figures each provider's profile on this site shows, read at the provider's own pages.
Who publishes what
Most providers publish their coverage. Far fewer publish what an employment costs beyond the monthly fee:
| What the provider's own site states | Providers | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Country count | 87 of 93 | 94% |
| Country list | 78 of 93 | 84% |
| Visa sponsorship | 71 of 93 | 76% |
| EOR price | 56 of 93 | 60% |
| Deposit | 40 of 93 | 43% |
| Setup fee | 37 of 93 | 40% |
| Currency terms | 27 of 93 | 29% |
| Offboarding fee | 25 of 93 | 27% |
56 providers publish an EOR price or plans and 37 quote on request. The terms most often missing are the ones that only show up on an invoice: the offboarding fee (stated by 25) and how currency is converted (27).
How the 93 providers score:
18 providers publish seven or all eight items. 31 publish three or fewer.
The providers that publish everything
These 8 providers state all 8↗ items on their own sites: Asanify, Emerald Technology, Multiplier, Oyster HR, Plane, Skuad (Payoneer), Teamed and Wisemonk.
Publishing everything is not the same as being the cheapest or the best fit for a hire. It means you can check every term before the first call. The index shows exactly which items each of the others leaves out.
What to ask a provider that does not publish a term
Where a provider's pages are silent, ask for the answer in writing before you sign:
- Deposit: is one required in the country you are hiring in, how many months, and of what (salary, the full employment cost, or every monthly charge)? When is it returned?
- Setup and offboarding fees: is there a one-time fee to start an employment, and a fee when the employee leaves, separate from any severance the law requires?
- Currency: which exchange rate converts your payment into the employee's salary, and what margin is added to it?
- Visa: can the provider sponsor a work permit in that country itself, or does a partner do it, and at what cost?
If you would rather not chase each provider, Get matched checks every provider's published terms against your hire (country, team size, visa) and gets you quotes from the ones you pick.
For providers
If your company is on the list and a term is missing, publish it on your own site and send us the page. We read every figure at the provider's own pages, so the index counts it once we have re-read the page that states it.
Frequently asked questions
What is the EOR Transparency Index?
A ranking of every employer of record provider BestEOR.co tracks by how many of 8↗ buyer-critical terms its own website publishes: price, country count, country list, security deposit, setup fee, offboarding fee, currency conversion terms and visa sponsorship. It measures disclosure only.
How many EOR providers publish their prices?
56 of the 93 providers publish an EOR price or plans on their own site; the other 37 quote on request. Published prices, cheapest first, are on the EOR price list.
Does a high score mean a provider is better?
No. A provider that publishes all its terms can still be more expensive or a poor fit for the country you hire in. The score tells you how much you can check before talking to sales, nothing more.
Can a referral program change a provider's place?
No. Some providers' referral programs pay BestEOR.co, and that lifts them in our matches, which we disclose. The transparency index counts published terms only and no referral program affects it.
The Bottom Line
Most EOR providers publish their price and their coverage. Few publish the deposit, the offboarding fee and the currency margin, the costs that decide how much cash a hire really ties up. Before you sign, check which terms your shortlist publishes and get the rest in writing.
