Country fit & local delivery
Offering model
GSM markets Serbian EOR for overseas companies and individual professionals. Its Teams model says staff are employed through its local company. A separate Standalone service establishes and manages a dedicated entity, generally for teams of 50 or more; this must not be counted as the same shared-employer service. No full legal name, registration number or partner-employer map was established.

Costs, deposits & currency
Team prices
Published company plans are EUR 200 per employee monthly for fewer than 10 staff, EUR 150 for 10–50, and custom pricing for Advanced. Starter includes legal employment, statutory administration and monthly reporting; Growth adds private health and eligible annual tax return preparation; Advanced adds tailored benefits and dedicated management. Salary, statutory employment costs and optional services require a total quote; headline service fees are not an all-in employment budget.

FX funding
Company marketing promises no markup on additional expenses or foreign exchange, but no rate benchmark, rate-lock time, bank fees, salary prefunding cutoff, deposit amount/custody or refund schedule was obtained.

Individual calculator
The separate Individuals calculator, at its illustrative RSD 150,000 monthly net salary input, showed gross employer cost RSD 241,729.09, GSM fee EUR 80 / RSD 9,406.40 and total RSD 251,135.49 / EUR 2,135.87. This is a displayed calculator result, not a signed quote or independently verified tax/FX calculation. Its EUR 80 fee applies to this individual scenario; do not replace the different company-team plans with it.

Platforms & integrations

Individuals are promised a personalised dashboard and reports; company plans promise monthly client reports, with financial/KPI reporting in Advanced.

Contracts & responsibility

No EOR MSA, indemnity limits, insurance, management-authority schedule or employee-to-client IP transfer chain was obtained. Its independence-test explainer is provider guidance, not independently verified legal assurance.

Business stability & track record
History reviews
GSM describes a transition from staffing/recruitment to EOR after Q2 2025 under new management. Its partner page lists generic sectors without named employing partners. No official exact-entity extract, current audited accounts, continuity plan or independent EOR customer sample was obtained. Zero collected reviews is an evidence gap, not a delivery-quality judgement.
