Employer of Record FAQs in Egypt
What is an Employer of Record in Egypt?
An Employer of Record (EOR) in Egypt is a third-party organization that becomes the legal employer of your workforce while you maintain day-to-day management. The EOR handles employment contracts, payroll, tax compliance, social insurance, and HR administration according to Egyptian labor laws, enabling you to hire without establishing a local entity.
How quickly can I hire employees in Egypt using an EOR?
With Asanify’s EOR service, you can hire employees in Egypt within 3-5 business days. We handle contract preparation, social insurance registration, and all compliance requirements, significantly faster than the 6-12 months typically required to establish a legal entity in Egypt.
What are the costs of using an EOR in Egypt?
EOR costs in Egypt include our service fee plus employer statutory contributions (approximately 18.75% for social insurance). This is significantly more cost-effective than establishing a local entity, which requires capital investment, office space, legal fees, and ongoing administrative costs. Asanify provides transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
What employment benefits are mandatory in Egypt?
Mandatory benefits in Egypt include social insurance coverage (pensions, health insurance, unemployment), 21 days of annual paid leave, public holidays, sick leave, maternity leave (90 days), and end-of-service gratuity. Asanify ensures all these statutory benefits are properly administered and compliant with Egyptian Labour Law.
How does payroll work with an EOR in Egypt?
Asanify processes monthly payroll in Egyptian Pounds, calculating salaries, allowances, deductions, social insurance contributions, and income tax withholding. We ensure timely payment to employees, remit all statutory contributions to authorities, and provide detailed payroll reports for your records.
Does using an EOR create permanent establishment risk in Egypt?
When properly structured, an EOR significantly reduces permanent establishment (PE) risk in Egypt. As the legal employer, Asanify holds the employment liability and contracts, minimizing your PE exposure. However, operational activities should be carefully managed to avoid triggering PE status under Egyptian tax law.
What is the probation period in Egypt?
Egyptian Labour Law allows a probation period of up to 3 months for most positions. During this period, either party may terminate employment with minimal notice. Asanify ensures probation terms are clearly defined in employment contracts and comply with all legal requirements.
How are terminations handled in Egypt?
Terminations in Egypt require valid reasons and proper procedures under Labour Law No. 12 of 2003. Notice periods vary by tenure, and severance pay (end-of-service gratuity) is mandatory based on length of service. Asanify manages the entire termination process, ensuring legal compliance and proper documentation to minimize disputes.
What is the standard working week in Egypt?
The standard working week in Egypt is 48 hours, typically 8 hours per day over 6 days. During Ramadan, working hours are reduced to 6 hours per day for Muslim employees. Overtime is capped at 2 hours per day and compensated at 135% of regular wages. Asanify ensures all time-tracking complies with these regulations.
