Country fit & local delivery

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.

Local model

Germany page claims AÜG permit 60101/010923/11901 and onboarding in 1–2 business days after documents/contract. UAE uses the DMCC entity and advertises 2–3 weeks after documents. Germany permit currency was not independently checked with the issuing authority; these timings are provider estimates and do not remove immigration dependencies.

Costs, deposits & currency

Pricing

Visa/government fees, optional travel/car and recruitment can be extra; visa illustration AED5,000–7,500 for two years. Germany comparison acknowledges a security deposit but no amount/refund schedule. FX spread and funding deadlines remain unknown.

Payroll that works in practice

Payroll

FMC takes payroll/statutory administration while client approves expenses, salary changes and bonuses. UAE claims WPS operation and regular leave reports. Monthly EOSB accrual appears on invoices. Country payroll cutoffs, dual-control evidence, payslip/invoice samples and correction liability/SLA remain gaps.

Support & accountability

Support

Both country pages offer a dedicated accessible contact and direct phone help instead of support tickets. G2 supplier description lists German, English and French. Trustpilot accounts praise assistance, but no binding availability window, escalation owner or incident-resolution SLA was retrieved.

Platforms & integrations

Platform

Current country pages describe expense receipt-scanning software and leave requests via an app/HR system, with client approval and provider processing. Therefore comparison-site claims of no software/app at all are not supported. No full client payroll dashboard, public API/integration catalogue, export specification or uptime/recovery evidence was inspected.

Switching & leaving an EOR

Exit

Provider flags Germany assignment-duration constraints and states changing EOR does not reset the same-client clock. It discusses ordinary/disputed termination and potential transfer to a client entity; UAE includes final settlements and EOSB. These are provider explanations, not verified legal advice or contractual exit prices. Minimum service term, transfer fees and deposit refund remain unknown.

Privacy page contains separate Turkish controller notices, including the recruitment/HR company, with identity/contact and customer data, transfer to service/business partners and group/foreign affiliates, and a 30-day request response. It is not a complete all-country EOR employee DPA. Named subprocessors, authentication/audit evidence, fixed retention and breach deadlines remain gaps.
