Highlighted figures mark the lower fee, wider country coverage and wider owned-entity country coverage. Terms for deposits and fees, visa sponsorship, payroll and contractor pricing and coverage region by region are quoted from each provider's own pages, read between October 6 and November 7, 2026; a dash means BestEOR has no cited figure for it. Confirm availability, the local employment model and a country-specific quote before choosing.

BestEOR.co is an independent informational comparison site, not an employer of record, a payroll provider, or a legal or tax advisor. Pricing, coverage, and features are curated from public sources and can change or be incomplete, and much EOR pricing is quoted on request rather than published. Country coverage does not guarantee a provider can employ in every location or role. Always confirm the current price, coverage, and terms directly with the provider, and take your own legal and tax advice, before signing.
