Onboarding time

How fast can an EOR onboard a new employee? What each provider says

When a start date is close, the time an employer of record takes to issue the contract and put the person on payroll matters. Each provider's own claim, fastest first, with the page that says it.

Of the 33↗ providers whose pages we read, 31 state how fast they onboard. The fastest claims, from 8 providers: Boundless, Deel, Employ Latam, Playroll, RemoFirst, Rivermate, Teamed and Velocity Global (Pebl) (their words are in the table). These are the providers' claims, not measurements: the real time depends on the country, the contract and any work permit.

Each provider's own pricing, product, FAQ and help-centre pages, read on 2026-11-04; ordered by the shortest time each claim states. Work permits take longer: see how long each provider says visa sponsorship takes. No onboarding time stated on the public pages of: Employment Hero, Justworks.
