EOR Services Enabling Market Entry Without Entity Setup
Services Provided
The Challenge
A Singapore-based fintech company won a contract to deploy their payment technology platform for a Qatari bank but did not have a legal entity in Qatar. Establishing a full company would take months and involve costs disproportionate to the initial project scope. The client needed to immediately hire and deploy 8 specialist technology consultants in Qatar with proper work authorization, payroll processing, and labour law compliance.
Our Solution
Engaged as the Employer of Record (EOR), hiring the 8 specified candidates under our existing Qatar entity while the client retained full operational management and direction of the team.
Processed work visas and residency permits for all 8 consultants within 3 weeks, using our existing immigration quota and streamlined processing channels.
Administered monthly payroll through WPS, managed end-of-service benefit accruals, processed medical insurance enrollment, and handled all statutory social obligations.
Maintained full compliance with Qatar Labour Law including employment contracts in Arabic, working hour regulations, leave management, and occupational health and safety requirements.
Provided the client with monthly reports covering payroll summaries, leave balances, visa status, and compliance confirmations.
The Results
- All 8 consultants deployed in Qatar with valid work authorization within 3 weeks.
- Client commenced project delivery on schedule without the delay of entity setup.
- Zero labour law compliance issues throughout the 24-month engagement.
- Based on the project's success, client eventually set up their own Qatar entity, with TrustLink managing the full incorporation and employee transfer process.
