Employer Of Record Makkah, Payroll Visas And Compliance

An Employer of Record is a local legal employer in Makkah who hires workers on your behalf. The EOR signs employment contracts under Saudi law. The EOR processes payroll, files GOSI, sponsors visas and issues iqama, calculates end of service and handles statutory reporting. You keep operational control and assign daily tasks.

Typical timeline for hires from abroad is 2 to 6 weeks from contract signature to iqama issuance, subject to government processing and medical clearances. Hajj and Umrah seasons extend timelines due to higher volume. Hires already in Saudi with transferable iqama often complete onboarding in 1 to 2 weeks.

The EOR registers employees with GOSI and deducts contributions during payroll using official rates. The EOR files periodic reports to MHRSD showing Saudization status and quota compliance and advises on local hires to reduce penalties. End of service pay follows Saudi law and the EOR issues final settlements and audit records.

Monthly invoice lists gross salaries, employer GOSI contributions, statutory benefits and end of service accruals, CCHI health insurance and government visa and iqama charges. The EOR adds a fixed administration fee per employee and any agreed recruitment costs. You receive an itemized invoice and scanned receipts for verification.

The EOR follows Saudi Labor Law for terminations and calculates end of service benefits using contract salary and service length. The EOR applies notice periods and final leave settlements, processes final payroll, pays statutory fees to authorities and issues final employment certificates and GOSI clearance. You receive full exit documentation and a payroll audit trail.
