Best Employer of Record providers in Egypt

RemotePeople employs through its own Egyptian entity, on contracts and payroll built for Law No. 14 of 2025 from the start — the three-month notice regime, the new paternity and emergency leave, the revised probation rules. Social insurance runs at 18.75% employer and 11% employee through NOSI, with Arabic contracts as the law requires. The cheapest published option here, with a named account manager.

The biggest provider in the category, with a published Egypt rate and the most granular employer-cost breakdown anywhere — it itemises the Emergency Fund, the Training and Rehabilitation Fund and the Disability Workforce Contribution per employee. Review base roughly ten times anyone else’s here.

Skuad was acquired by Payoneer in 2024 and now runs on its balance sheet. It employs in Egypt under Law No. 14 of 2025 with lawyer-led compliance, and is among the cheapest transparent options on this page.

A global payroll specialist with real Middle East and North Africa depth, employing in Egypt through its own Mercans-owned entity and handling end-of-service settlements in-house — a region-specific capability most global platforms lack.

An established Egyptian firm with a dedicated employer-of-record line, having served 1,900+ companies over more than a decade. It employs Egyptian staff without the client establishing an entity, runs payroll, social insurance and HR operations, and works in Arabic and English with named blue-chip clients including Ideal Standard, Opera Software, Magrabi and IDH.

The longest-established Egyptian firm here, operating since 2006 with offices in New Cairo and Alexandria. It signs and terminates employment contracts, runs monthly payroll, handles the social insurance form and government fees, and also runs work permits and visas for expatriate staff — a complete local operation.

A Cairo firm with two decades of operation and genuine reach across MENA, Africa and Asia through associate offices. It offers in-country EOR and PEO for hiring without a local entity, and is the only Egyptian local provider here with verified third-party client reviews — including from an international construction contractor and a Gulf hotel group.

One of the oldest and largest names in the category, founded in Boston with 180+ countries and over a hundred owned entities. Egypt is covered within that footprint rather than as a specialism, on a published from-price with volume discounts and an enterprise track record going back more than a decade.

The newest firm on this page, established in Alexandria in 2026 by a managing director with a decade of experience across Egypt, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. It employs under Law No. 14 of 2025 with Arabic contracts, files quarterly returns to NOSI and the Egyptian Tax Authority, and onboards in 48 to 72 hours. Capable, but without a track record yet.

A global platform with transparent pricing and broad coverage, employing in Egypt through a local partner. A reasonable choice for a company already on Playroll elsewhere in Africa.

Founded in 2008 and running EOR since 2010, Safeguard covers more countries than any provider here, with 400+ in-country experts and strong enterprise multi-country programmes. It sold its enterprise payroll division to Deel in 2025 and now runs on Deel technology under agreement. Egypt is covered within its 187-country footprint.

Remote owns and operates all of its own entities across 90+ countries with no partner layer, publishes a flat price, and carries one of the largest review bases in the category. It is the most expensive option on this page.

A US global platform covering 160+ countries on owned entities, with a dedicated HR Employee Relationship Consultant assigned to every worksite employee — the strongest stated support model of any global provider. Egypt is covered within that footprint, with no regional office nearer than Asia.

A large, well-funded Singapore-based platform covering 150+ countries with careful statutory handling and multicurrency payroll. Egypt is covered within that footprint.
