For a remote-first SMB piloting their first international contractor without an entity, a scale-up adding a fifth-country hire without opening a new ledger, or a founder shipping a compliant EOR contract before the next funding round — Bordero drafts the country-specific contract, runs the payslip, and bills it all on one ledger.
Country-specific contract drafted before your next stand-up.
Owned entities — live payroll
60+ currencies · 12 compliance regimes
For employers
Built for finance teams running a global headcount on one ledger. Same platform that drafts the contract runs the payslip — no hand-offs to a partner you have never met.
For employers
Capabilities
The same platform that drafts the contract runs the payslip. No hand-offs to a partner you have never met.
Coverage
A local entity already exists for every market we cover — no waiting on incorporation, no nominee directors on your cap table, no surprise tax residency on the way back.
Contracts
Every hire gets the contract the country expects: notice periods, probation, IP assignment, garden leave, equity treatment, restrictive covenants. Reviewed for the role and the level, not the template.
Payroll
Payroll runs on the local statutory cycle. Withholding, social contributions, and filings are filed by the entity; you reconcile once, in your home currency.
Cycle 092 · monthly payroll
One invoice in your home currency — the cycle, the entity, the regulator, all local.

How it works
One workflow from job description to first payslip. Bordero carries the in-country legal, tax, and compliance footprint — your team keeps the management of the work.
Pick the hire country, the start date, and the role. Bordero confirms the entity on our network, the contract template that fits local law, and the tax regime before anyone signs.
Our compliance team issues a country-specific contract, provisions social security, ID, and statutory benefits, and opens a local payroll account — all on one ledger, one timeline.
Bordero · Country-specific contract
Drafted by in-house counsel. Reviewed for the role and the level, not the template.
Country: Germany · Role: Senior Engineer · Template: EOR (DE) v4.2 · Issued under local statutory frame.
Continuous employment under the German statutory frame. Probation: six months. Notice period: four weeks, scaling to seven weeks by seniority, per local statutory minimum.
All work product assigned to the entity, governed by §29 BetrAVG-aligned IP transfer. Confidentiality survives termination by thirty-six months; restrictive covenants scoped to direct competitors only.
The hire signs electronically in their own language. Immigration, right-to-work, and country-specific onboarding workflows run in parallel inside Bordero — visible to the employer from issue to green.
Monthly payroll runs on the country’s statutory cycle. We handle tax withholding, social contributions, and filings; you pay one invoice in your home currency. Off-boarding, severance, and equity flows are wired in.
Coverage
Compliance is the new bottleneck for every cross-border hire. Some teams wait sixty days for entity setup before a single payslip can run; others ship a contractor-conversion that becomes a misclassification audit two years later. Bordero compresses entity setup to two business days and drafts the country-specific contract before anyone signs.
Numbers below ride the platform today — on owned entities, signed contracts, and statutory payroll cycles.
