Do I need to have a registered entity in South Africa to hire skills in SA?

Employers without a registered entity in South Africa can employ full-time talent in South Africa via RecruitMyMom's Employer of Record Service. Alternatively, you can hire Independent Contracting talent for projects without needing an EOR. 

At RecruitMyMom, we offer Employer of Record (EOR) services for South African remote-based employees, streamlining the hiring process by acting as the legal employer on your behalf. Our Employer of Record (EOR) services handle all aspects of employment administration, including payroll, tax compliance, contracts, and employee benefits, while you maintain full control over the employee's day-to-day activities and responsibilities. This arrangement allows you to expand your team quickly and compliantly without establishing a legal entity in South Africa.
