What is an Employer of Record in the Dominican Republic?
An Employer of Record in the Dominican Republic simplifies hiring by managing onboarding, payroll, benefits, compliance, and more, so companies can legally employ talent without setting up a local entity.
What are the benefits of using an Employer of Record in the Dominican Republic?
An EOR in the Dominican Republic speeds up hiring, helps mitigate legal risk, manages local compliance and complex tax laws, and saves time and cost on entity setup.
Hiring in the Dominican Republic comes with rules
Even routine missteps can trigger serious costs.
We manage what others overlook. Our Employer of Record in the Dominican Republic helps you stay compliant across pay, classification, and exits.
Hire and grow with confidence.
Misclassify a contractor?
If they follow your schedule or use your tools, they may be treated as employees, triggering back pay and benefits.
Skip profit-sharing or the Christmas bonus?
Employers must pay 10% of profits and a 1/12th salary as December bonus. Missing either can lead to claims and fines.
Handle ‘desahucio’ incorrectly?
Terminating without cause still requires advance notice. Miss it, and you owe daily penalties plus severance.

Frequently asked questions
Learn how EOR services and Payoneer WFM simplify hiring in the Dominican Republic.
While setting up a local entity offers more control, using an Employer of Record in the Dominican Republic is a faster, lower-risk way to hire and manage talent compliantly, especially when testing the market, scaling quickly, or building a small team without the cost and complexity of establishing an entity.
No, they are not the same, an Employer of Record (EOR) assumes full responsibility for your international workforce and compliantly manages onboarding, payroll, taxes, benefits, and other employment functions without a local entity, whereas a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) co-employs workers and shares responsibilities for payroll and HR, but requires the client to have a local entity in the country.
You can research various EORs and compare elements like local compliance expertise, services & support provided, customer reviews, value-added services (like talent discovery, work visas, background checks), EOR’s reputation, knowledge, experience and pricing structure.
Yes, Payoneer WFM can conduct background checks and facilitate work permits or visas for your employees, but these services are included as part of our EOR offering and are not available separately.
Payoneer Workforce Management (WFM) offers EOR services in 160+ countries, including the Dominican Republic, and can therefore facilitate compliant onboarding of your foreign employees through Payoneer WFM’s local entities.
