Onboarding an EOR Employee

An Employer of Record (EOR) employee refers to someone who is employed through Remote's local entity in a foreign country where the employer does not have a legal presence. For this kind of employment, Remote acts as the legal employer on paper and handles HR tasks including payroll, taxation, benefits, compliance, etc., while the employer company maintains day-to-day working relationship with the employee.

This guide explains how to onboard an employee using Remote’s API. It covers the full onboarding flow — from meeting the necessary prerequisites to creating, updating, inviting, and managing employment records. It also describes how to add benefits and cancel onboarding when needed.

By following these steps, you can successfully transition a candidate from offer acceptance to active employment.
