How EOR in Indonesia works, step by step

1

Tell us who you want to employ

Share the role, salary, start date, and any benefits you want to offer. We confirm what Indonesia law requires and send an all-in monthly quote.

2

We become the legal employer

Your team member is employed under our owned entity in Indonesia, on a contract that meets local labor law and assigns IP to your company.

3

You direct the work, we handle the backend

Reporting lines, tools, working hours, and performance stay entirely with you. We are the legal employer, not the manager.

4

We run payroll, taxes, and compliance

Salary disbursement, tax withholding, social insurance, statutory bonuses, and leave are handled monthly under Indonesia regulations.

EOR in Indonesia FAQs

Everything HR and finance need to know.

What does an Employer of Record (EOR) do in Indonesia?
An EOR is the legal employer of your team in Indonesia. It issues the employment contract, runs payroll, withholds and files income tax, enrols employees in statutory benefit schemes, and carries the compliance liability — so you can employ there without setting up a local entity.
What roles can I employ in Indonesia through an EOR?
Any role you would put on your own payroll — engineering, finance, marketing, sales, operations, customer support, HR, design, and management. EOR is a legal employment arrangement, not a role-specific service. The only exceptions are roles that Indonesia law reserves for licensed or entity-employed staff.
How fast can employees be onboarded in Indonesia?
Most employees can be onboarded within 5–10 business days, depending on documentation. Contracts, statutory registrations, and payroll setup run in parallel from day one.
Do I maintain control over the work?
Absolutely. You direct work responsibilities, reporting lines, performance management, and team culture. We handle the legal and administrative backend only.
How much does EOR in Indonesia cost?
Our EOR fee is a transparent monthly amount per employee, charged on top of their salary and the statutory employer contributions listed above. There are no upfront fees, no setup fees, and no hidden costs.
Can I convert existing Indonesia contractors to employees?
Yes. Long-term contractors who work fixed hours under your direction are a misclassification risk in Indonesia. We move them onto compliant employment contracts with the statutory entitlements they are owed, under our local entity.
Who owns the IP my Indonesia employees create?
You do. Every employment contract we issue includes IP assignment and confidentiality clauses drafted to be enforceable under Indonesia law.
Can I offer localized benefits to my Indonesia employees?
Yes. We administer local statutory benefits (health, leave, social insurance) plus any optional benefits you want to offer (private health, equipment stipends, learning budgets), all billed through the same monthly invoice.
