Per staff member
Plus your staff member's agreed wage, paid to them in full. You always see exactly what they earn.
- Compliant contractor agreements through our offshore entity
- Monthly payroll and on-time payments in local currency

The wage is the wage. The fee is the fee.
You agree the pay directly with your staff member and they receive it in full. Our $540 sits beside it, not inside it. No hidden margin on someone else's salary, which means you can reward good people properly and they know exactly where they stand.

Why the paperwork is the product
Paying someone overseas through a bank transfer and a handshake works right up until it doesn't. Three risks sit under every informal offshore arrangement, and the COR layer exists to manage them.
Sham contracting
Calling someone a contractor while treating them as an employee is a compliance problem in both countries. The engagement needs to be structured and papered to match how the person actually works.
Misclassification
Wrong classification means wrong entitlements, wrong tax treatment and back-pay exposure that compounds quietly for years. Getting the classification right at the start is far cheaper than fixing it later.
The reality test
Regulators look at the reality of the relationship, not the label on the document. Our agreements are built around how offshore staff genuinely work, and we walk you through exactly how the structure holds on your first call.
This is general information, not legal advice. On the call we walk through how the engagement is structured through our offshore entity so you can compare it honestly with any other quote.
Who does what
Three relationships, each with one clear owner. No grey areas about who employs whom.
You and Remotee
