Hire employees in Ukraine with an Employer of Record

Hiring in Ukraine requires a registered local employer to handle payroll, taxes, and statutory benefits. With EOR World, our local entity becomes the legal employer — so you can hire any candidate in Ukraine without setting up your own subsidiary.

The local currency is UAH and the standard payroll cycle is monthly (twice/month). The official working language is Ukrainian / English, and contracts must comply with Ukraine employment law.

Payroll in Ukraine runs monthly (twice/month). Employers are responsible for income tax withholding, social security contributions, and any mandatory benefits.

Estimated employer cost on top of gross salary: ~22% Single Social Contribution. EOR World handles all calculations, deductions, and statutory filings on your behalf.

Total cost = gross salary + employer contributions (~22% Single Social Contribution) + EOR fee starting at $299/month. There are no setup fees, no hidden charges, and no per-country surprises.

• Hire in Ukraine in days — without registering a local entity (which can take months and cost $15,000+).
• Stay 100% compliant with Ukraine employment, tax, and labour law.
• Pay employees in UAH on time, every cycle.
• Provide compliant local benefits and a great employee experience.
• Avoid permanent establishment risk and misclassification penalties.
