What to ask any EOR about Thailand
- Do they employ through their own Thailand entity or a partner? (Foreign companies without a Thai entity cannot employ staff directly. EOR avoids setting up a Thai company (which takes months). Work permits are required for foreign nationals, but hiring Thai nationals needs none.)
- Which statutory items are included in the quote: Annual paid leave of 6 working days after one year, 13 public holidays (employer must give at least 13), Sick leave up to 30 days paid per year?
- How are termination and severance costs handled? Termination without cause requires notice of at least one pay period (up to 3 months) or pay in lieu, and statutory severance based on tenure: 120 days to <1 year = 30 days' wages; 1 to <3 years = 90 days; 3 to <6 years = 180 days; 6 to <10 years = 240 days; 10 to <20 years = 300 days; 20+ years = 400 days.
- Any deposit, onboarding or offboarding fees on top of the monthly fee?
