Employer of Record in Austria (EOR in Austria)

While setting up a subsidiary in Austria is often considered the default option for local expansion, opting for an Employer of Record offers several comparative advantages, including:

• Speed – The business setup process in Austria is expedited with an Employer of Record like INS Global, enabling you to start operations and hire staff much faster. Company incorporation can take several months of planning and documentation, whereas an Employer of Record can make your team operational within weeks or even days.
• Compliance – Employer of Records and subsidiaries must always comply with Austrian tax laws and labor regulations when employing local staff. However, Employer of Records already have the specialized knowledge to handle these complexities and ensure continuous compliance without the need for in-house experts.
• Cost – For small teams or temporary needs, Employer of Record services are often more cost-effective than establishing a subsidiary, as you avoid upfront incorporation expenses and ongoing administrative costs. For larger companies, Employer of Records provide specialized streamlining options that help you efficiently integrate new markets into multi-country payroll systems.
• Control – While incorporation offers full control over HR, finances, and operations, Employer of Records can provide the same level of organizational control over your workforce while reducing your administrative responsibilities and liability.
