Expand into the Middle East Quickly and Compliantly

If you want to grow your international presence without the time-consuming and complex process of establishing new legal entities, NES Fircroft is your trusted Employer of Record partner.

Our EOR services enable businesses to hire talent across the Middle East and other global locations without needing a physical presence in-country. We take full responsibility for payroll, tax, and compliance. This includes drafting and managing employment contracts, conducting background checks, supporting visa and work permit applications, and designing locally compliant compensation packages.

Simplify Your Middle East Expansion

Do you recognise these challenges obstructing your global expansion into the Middle East?

Challenge: Each Middle Eastern country has its unique set of labour laws, visa requirements, and nationalisation policies (e.g. Saudisation in Saudi Arabia, Emiratisation in the UAE). Navigating these without local expertise can lead to compliance risks.

Solution: NES Fircroft’s in-country legal and HR experts ensure full compliance with local employment laws, including nationalisation policies like Saudisation and Emiratisation. This reduces legal risk and ensures smooth operations.

Challenge: Securing work permits and residency visas can be time-consuming and bureaucratic, especially for expatriate workers. Delays in processing can impact project timelines and onboarding schedules.

Solution: NES Fircroft handles the entire visa and immigration process, including sponsorship, documentation, and renewals, ensuring timely onboarding and legal work status for expatriate employees.

Challenge: In most Middle Eastern countries, companies cannot legally hire or pay employees without a registered entity. Setting up a local entity is often costly, slow, and administratively burdensome.

Solution: As your legal employer in the region, NES Fircroft’s EOR services enable you to hire and pay staff without setting up a local business. This saves time, reduces costs, and accelerates market entry.

Challenge: Without in-country support, managing payroll in local currencies, understanding statutory deductions, and ensuring tax compliance across multiple jurisdictions can be overwhelming.

Solution: NES Fircroft manages payroll in local currencies, ensures accurate tax deductions, and administers statutory benefits, removing the burden of navigating complex financial regulations. 

Challenge: Understanding local business etiquette, communication styles, and cultural expectations is essential for successful hiring and retention, but it can be difficult for foreign companies to navigate.

Solution: With local teams on the ground, NES Fircroft provides culturally aware HR support, helping you build strong relationships with your workforce and avoid miscommunication.

Challenge: Demand for skilled professionals is high in some sectors, especially Energy, Construction, and Technology. Attracting and retaining top talent requires competitive, locally aligned compensation and benefits packages.

Solution: NES Fircroft offers competitive, locally compliant compensation packages and benefits, helping you attract top talent in competitive markets like Energy, Technology, and Infrastructure.
