What it is
Remote (remote.com) is a global employment platform. Companies use it to employ people in other countries through its employer of record (EOR) service, run payroll, and manage contractors. Remote says it operates "owned end-to-end infrastructure", meaning its own legal entities and local legal, payroll and compliance teams rather than a partner network (source: remote.com, as of 2026-09).
Why it matters to you
If a company offers to employ you "through Remote", Remote's local entity would be your legal employer: it issues your employment contract, runs payroll, withholds tax and provides statutory benefits, while the company directs your work. Knowing this helps you ask the right questions about your contract.
Pricing (the company's cost, as of 2026-09)
Remote's pricing page lists EOR at $699 per employee per month covering 90+ countries, contractor management from $29 per contractor per month, and contractor of record from $325 per contractor per month (source: remote.com/pricing). You do not pay these; they show why hiring internationally has a real cost for employers.
Useful free reading
Remote publishes country explorers and guides on employment in different countries, covering things like statutory leave, probation, notice and benefits. Reading the guide for your country before an offer arrives helps you understand what the law requires and what would be an extra.
How to use it on this roadmap
- In the employment stage, read your country's guide and note statutory leave, notice and benefits.
- When an offer names Remote, ask for the gross-to-net estimate and the full employment contract.
- Compare what is statutory with what the company adds.
Safety note
Only complete onboarding through links from Remote's real domain after you have a verified offer. Scammers copy the names of well-known EOR platforms.
