Employer Of Record Fujairah For International Teams

The EOR registers employment under UAE labour law and issues bilingual contracts. The provider handles payroll in AED with WPS reporting, health insurance administration, residency visas, work permits, Emirates ID processing, and end of service gratuity. The provider supplies local HR support, onboarding, offboarding, and consolidated invoicing.

Typical Fujairah work permit and residency processing takes 10 to 21 business days from document submission. Timelines vary by nationality, free zone rules, and authority workload. Request SLAs for visa milestones and ask the provider for a timeline tracker. Include medical testing and Emirates ID time when planning onboarding.

The EOR acts as the legal employer under MOHRE registrations and holds statutory employer liabilities. Your company keeps operational control over roles, tasks, and performance. Define responsibilities for payroll accuracy, workplace investigations, benefits, and termination in the service agreement. Obtain a local legal review before signing.

Expect a monthly service fee per employee plus payroll disbursement and statutory costs. Line items include visa fees, medicals, Emirates ID, health insurance, WPS bank fees, and employer contributions for GCC nationals. Request a detailed, line item fee schedule and a sample invoice. Typical market ranges for full service run AED 1,200 to AED 3,500 per employee per month.

Build a formal transfer plan in the service contract. Steps: set up the local entity, transfer employment records, issue new local contracts, reconcile end of service gratuity, and finalise payroll settlements. Allow four to eight weeks for the process, depending on authority processing and notice periods. Verify all employee consents in writing.
