Understanding management fees and offboarding process with Remote
Remote charges a monthly management fee for each Employer of Record (EOR) employee, based on their employment start and termination dates. This article explains when fees apply and how they are billed during onboarding and offboarding.
Management fees are monthly charges for each EOR employee. They apply to the months covered by the employee’s employment start and termination dates, regardless of when their payslips are generated. These fees are outlined in our Terms of Service.
Starting January 1, 2027, EOR management fees will move from the reconciliation invoice to the pre-funding invoice. This changes when you pay the fee, not the fee amount.
During the transition, the December 2026 management fee will appear on the reconciliation invoice, and the January 2027 management fee will appear on the pre-funding invoice. These charges cover different months and are not duplicate charges, although paying them close together may temporarily increase your cash outflow.
We charge the full monthly management fee for the month in which the employee starts and the month in which their employment ends. Management fees are not prorated, even if the employee works for only part of the month.
- Late-month start: If the employee starts on January 28, the full management fee applies for January, even if their first salary is paid in February.
- Early-month termination: If the employee’s employment ends on February 5, the full management fee applies for February. No management fee applies for March, even if their final salary or other remaining payments are processed in March.
The employment dates determine which months are chargeable, not the payroll cutoff or the date the employee receives their pay.
Annual fees are nonrefundable.
