Remote hire

Hire one person in NL - without opening an entity

The fastest, lowest-overhead way to bring a Dutch professional onto your team. Our certified EOR partner handles the legal employer role; you manage the work.

When this fits

  • • You are testing the Dutch market with a single hire.
  • • You don't want to commit to a BV until headcount justifies it.
  • • You need to absorb a contractor who is now subject to misclassification risk.
  • • You acquired a remote employee in a deal and need a compliant home.

When it does not

  • • You already have a Dutch BV → use our payroll service instead.
  • • You're hiring 10+ people in one quarter → consider our expansion route or incorporating via Intercompany Solutions.
  • • The candidate needs an IND sponsor → see sponsorship.

Common questions

Who is the legal employer?+

Our certified EOR partner. They sign the contract, run payroll, and carry employer liability. You direct day-to-day work.

Can my hire keep working from outside NL sometimes?+

Yes, within the EU social-security A1 framework. Extended cross-border work needs a quick compliance check first.

How fast can someone start?+

Typically 5-10 working days from candidate brief, faster if BSN is already in place.

What about IP and confidentiality?+

Your IP/NDA clauses are layered into the Dutch employment contract through a tri-party schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. An Employer of Record legally employs the person on your behalf, so you need no Dutch entity, no payroll tax number, and no local bank account. You pay a single monthly invoice covering salary, employer charges, and the service fee.
