The problem
Opening your own entity is expensive and time-consuming.
When you open a legal entity in the Philippines, you need to:
- Pay setup fees
- Open a local bank account
- Find a local lawyer to set up contracts
- Hire a local HR expert
- Find a local finance specialist to run payroll
- Calculate and pay local taxes
- Deal with currency exchange
The solution
When Plane acts as your EOR, you don’t need to set up your own entity.
With Plane as your employer of record, you don’t need to hire a lawyer, HR expert, and finance specialist in the Philippines, or try to take on all three roles yourself.We provide localized contracts, run payroll, take care of taxes, and make sure you stay compliant. Plus, we don’t charge any setup fees. If you're considering working with contractors, we also support hiring and paying contractors in the Philippines.
How does an employer of record (EOR) work?
When you work with an EOR, they legally act as an employer for your employees. Global EORs have local entities set up in different countries, so you don’t need to set up the entities yourself if you’re hiring in those countries. Plane enables you to hire employees in the Philippines and 100+ other countries, because we have entities set up around the world. As your EOR in the Philippines, we provide local contract templates and take care of payroll, benefits, and compliance for your Filipino employees.
