All You Need to Know About Hiring Beyond Borders
But when you hire people from other countries in Kuwait, you have to follow the law and do the paperwork right to make sure you follow all of the country’s labor laws and immigration rules. This article will show you how to legally hire foreign workers in Kuwait, what your options are, and how Sanad makes the whole process easier with its EOR (Employer of Record) and Sponsorship solutions.
Why Kuwaiti Companies Employ Foreign Talent
Employing foreign workers enables Kuwaiti businesses to:
Although the advantages are obvious, navigating Kuwait’s legal framework regarding foreign employment presents difficulties.
Identifying Kuwait’s Legal Environment for Employing Foreign Workers
The employment of non-Kuwaiti workers is governed by particular regulations in Kuwait. A local business or organization with the authority to grant work visas and employment contracts must sponsor all foreign workers. Among the most important legal requirements are:
Failure to comply with these regulations can result infines, legal disputes, visa cancellations, or business disruptions.
Your Choices for Employing Foreign Workers in Kuwait
Companies wishing to employ foreign workers in Kuwait have two primary options:
1. Create a Legal Entity in Kuwait:
This entails registering a branch or starting a local business that is authorized to employ and support foreign employees. Although this method gives complete control over operations, it is expensive, time-consuming, and necessitates capital investment and ownership compliance.
2. Partner with a Sponsorship Provider or Employer of Record (EOR), such as Sanad.
By using anEOR, you can hire foreign workers without forming a local legal entity. While you oversee the employee’s daily work, the EOR takes on the role of legal employer on your behalf, managing all employment, legal, and visa-related duties.
