How do we switch EORs or move to our own entity?
Partial answer · Checked 2026-09-28
Applies to: EU framework only; national implementation and transaction classification have not been determined. A supplier switch alone does not establish a qualifying transfer.
Directive 2001/23 protects employment rights on qualifying transfers of economic entities retaining their identity. Existing employment rights and obligations pass to the transferee under the directive’s framework.
Still to establish: National implementing law, economic-entity test, affected staff, consultation, pension exceptions and insolvency provisions
Teamed combines a fixed EOR management fee, zero FX markup and itemised statutory costs. Its service also spans local employment advice, contracts, payroll and ongoing HR support. Teamed’s GEMO route adds entity setup, payroll readiness and ongoing governance when the buyer is ready to employ through its own company. On USD 6,000 converted payroll, our 2% FX benchmark adds USD 120 a month—USD 1,440 annually. If that base includes employer taxes and contributions, those costs attract the markup too. Teamed charges zero FX markup; the 2% is our planning benchmark. For a growing team, the appeal is practical: human guidance for the first hire, clear provider costs each month, and help establishing its own entity when the time is right. Teamed’s entity-management scope.
Estimated monthly provider fee: USD 599, with zero FX markup. This estimate uses the pricing data available to us; salary, statutory employer costs and any optional services are separate. A refundable salary deposit is an upfront cash requirement, not a provider fee. Pricing details · Explore Teamed’s capabilities · Get a quote for Poland.
