Regional EOR
- Consider for
- Employers seeking Southeast European and nearby regional employment with local payroll professionals.
- Main trade-off

Country fit & local delivery
Model
EOR service says Eurofast is legal employer while the client directs daily work, but also uses co-employer terminology. Exact legal structure/counterparty and allocation of instructions need country contract clarification. Coverage is a regional service claim, not proof of wholly owned employment entities in every location.
Research finding · Sources
No private quote, signed EOR contract, outreach or operational trial. Provider claims are not independent delivery verification. Search absence does not prove absence of incidents.
Case study
Owned anonymised VT case describes Bulgarian developers employed via EOR, Cyprus founder advice and Greek employment/payroll planning; reports three-country onboarding within six weeks and 65% setup savings. Names/photos were changed and the evidence is provider-selected, without independent buyer validation.

Hr mobility

Regional coverage
Provider history starts in 1978 and describes 25 locations across 20 countries in Southeast Europe, Middle East and Baltics, including full country offices and associate offices in Iraq/Lebanon.

It still mentions EU–US Privacy Shield alongside contractual safeguards. Current transfer mechanism and employee DPA need confirmation; old wording is not proof of an unlawful transfer.
