Hire employees in Pakistan with an Employer of Record

Hiring in Pakistan requires a registered local employer to handle payroll, taxes, and statutory benefits. With Expand EOR, our local entity becomes the legal employer — so you can hire any candidate in Pakistan without setting up your own subsidiary.

The local currency is PKR and the standard payroll cycle is monthly. The official working language is Urdu / English, and contracts must comply with Pakistan employment law.

Payroll in Pakistan runs monthly. Employers are responsible for income tax withholding, social security contributions, and any mandatory benefits.

Estimated employer cost on top of gross salary: ~6–7% EOBI + social security. Expand EOR handles all calculations, deductions, and statutory filings on your behalf.

Total cost = gross salary + employer contributions (~6–7% EOBI + social security) + EOR fee starting at $299/month. There are no setup fees, no hidden charges, and no per-country surprises.

• Hire in Pakistan in days — without registering a local entity (which can take months and cost $15,000+).
• Stay 100% compliant with Pakistan employment, tax, and labour law.
• Pay employees in PKR on time, every cycle.
• Provide compliant local benefits and a great employee experience.
• Avoid permanent establishment risk and misclassification penalties.
