Remote
Employer of Record, payroll and contractor management to recruit talent in 100+ countries without local entities
Overview
Remote is an international employment platform enabling you to hire full-time employees via its Employer of Record service ($599-699/month/employee depending on country), manage contractors/freelancers (from $29/month with contract generation and local currency payments), or run payroll for already-opened entities (from $29/month/employee). Coverage spans 100+ countries with local compliance handling (employment contracts, contributions, benefits, severance) managed in-house by Remote's legal teams rather than via third-party partners, which the company highlights as a reliability advantage.
Remote offers a fully French website and pricing (remote.com/fr-fr), easing onboarding for French HR teams. France is among covered countries for EOR hiring, with local labor law management. An API enables integrating payroll and contract data with other HR systems. Like competitors, EOR pricing ($599-699/month per employee) remains significant budget for SMEs hiring only one or two people abroad, and most advanced features (automated onboarding, stock option management) are reserved for paid packages.
Our verdict
Recommended for French organizations wanting sustained international hiring with in-house legal compliance management rather than third-party sub-contractors. Not suitable for occasional or low-budget needs: per-employee EOR cost stays comparable to competitors with no discount for single hire.
