Welcome to Remote Equity: Global equity, without the compliance headaches

Remote Equity is a lightweight compliance tool designed to help you manage equity grants across borders for team members hired through Remote's Employer of Record (EOR).

Whether you’re managing vesting, reporting exercises, or navigating local tax laws, Remote Equity gives you the structure to stay compliant, avoid risk, and support your team across borders.

Why it matters

As your EOR, Remote is legally responsible for equity-related tax and reporting in the countries where your team members are employed. That means we don’t just track equity, we:

• Withhold and report taxes when required
• File with local tax authorities
• Support team members with clear guidance on their tax responsibilities

Most equity platforms can’t do that because they’re not the legal employer. Remote Equity ensures we have the data we need, when we need it, to keep your company compliant and your team fairly rewarded.

Behind the scenes, our tax team:

• Handles tax withholdings when taxable events occur
• Provides guidance to you and your team, even when no withholding is required
• Manages additional reporting where local laws demand it

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Who needs to use Remote Equity?

Any Remote customer granting equity to a team member hired through Remote’s EOR must use Remote Equity to meet local compliance requirements.

Why can’t we just use our own equity tool?

Traditional equity tools track grants and vesting, but they don't file taxes, withhold contributions, or report income to local authorities. Remote, as the legal employer, is responsible for these actions. Remote Equity ensures those obligations are covered.

What happens if we don’t use it?

If Remote doesn’t receive timely and accurate equity data, required filings may be missed. This can result in compliance risks, unexpected tax liabilities, and issues for both your company and your team members.

How much does Remote Equity cost?
