Two economic powerhouses, Malaysia and the Netherlands are both thriving financial hubs located in dynamic regions—particularly for businesses looking to establish a global presence. Scaling operations successfully in these countries presents significant growth opportunities that support revenue growth. But it is important to understand that when entering new regions, complex payroll, tax, immigration and international employee challenges will arise, especially when legislation remains unique to the evolving regulatory requirements of individual countries.

The navigation of local payroll legislation and regulatory requirements in the Netherlands and Malaysia requires sound understanding of distinct labour laws, tax treaties and payroll compliance standards that constantly evolve. Having a business entity in a new country is vital to stay updated, informed and agile to ensure operational efficiency and legal compliance in innovative and dynamic countries located in regions with high growth potential. It is essential businesses keep up to date and aware of changes to any employee focused policies, if wishing to scale quickly and compliantly in new territories to make sure they stay in adherence of local law.

Achieving global payroll reporting visibility, collation and analysis of employee data across various countries where a business operates is vital to success. As employees are mobilised and new business locations activated, sound understanding of various currency requirements, tax regulations and reporting policies becomes key to successful operations. Especially when a global business is looking to submit accurate financial statements that meet localised regulatory requirements.

EOR services help global businesses enter a new market fast but also efficiently, while offering risk reduction for pain free employee transitions via the support of local experts.

What is an EOR (Employer of Record)?

EOR services is a third-party provider that takes on legal responsibility of employing workers on behalf of a company, while the client company retains full control over a business’s day-to-day activities.
