Immigration Support for Hiring Expats in Peru via Global EOR & PEO

Comprehensive Support for Business Immigration by Global Employer of Record

In today’s dynamic business landscape, reaching your full global potential requires a seamless talent acquisition and employment approach. Express Global Employment stands as your trusted partner, empowering you to navigate the complexities of global mobility and immigration with confidence.

Navigating Documentation Challenges

Navigating the documentation maze is easier said than done. Employers juggle numerous documents, from proof of citizenship or legal residence to employment verification and birth certificates. This effort is further compounded by the necessity to meet specific deadlines and provide correct forms when interacting with governmental agencies. The stakes are high: failure to comply can delay or even rejections of essential work permits and visas.

Simplifying the Process: Expertly Managed Applications

We aim to streamline this complex process at Express Global Employment. Clients must fill out the forms, provide necessary signatures, and furnish proof of employment and other details. Our dedicated team of immigration support and global mobility specialists takes over from there. We handle everything else, offering expert advice and support at every stage. Our finely-tuned system reduces the legwork for clients while ensuring that they remain engaged and informed throughout the process.

Services Offered

We provide a comprehensive  suite of global mobility and global employment services, including:

  • Expert guidance on the forms required and how to fill them correctly
  • Assistance with document collection and form completion
  • Support in preparing for any face-to-face meetings or interviews
  • Coordination with in-country immigration authorities as required
  • Ongoing support until your case is approved.

Mitigating Risks of Visa and Work Permit Rejections

Risk mitigation is central to our approach. A unified entity like Acumen Global Employer of Record takes on the onus of sponsorship and formal employment, making the attainment of work permits a much more streamlined and reliable process. Suppose your goal is to manage your international workforce efficiently in terms of time and cost. In that case, our services are designed to sponsor work permits and visas irrespective of the number of employees or their geographical locations.

Global Mobility Services

Our Global Mobility Services are designed to complement our core Global Employer of Record services, providing a seamless and comprehensive solution for your global talent management needs. With us, you can rest assured that your expats are well-supported, engaged, and ready to contribute to your organization’s success from the beginning. Our Global Mobility Services encompass:

  • Medical Insurance: We secure comprehensive medical coverage for your expats, ensuring they have access to quality healthcare wherever they are assigned.

  • Housing: We assist your expats in finding suitable and comfortable accommodations that meet their needs and preferences.

  • Office Rent: We handle the complexities of securing appropriate and well-equipped office accommodations for expats requiring office space.

  • Mobile Phone & Car Provision: We provide expats with mobile phones and, if necessary, cars to facilitate communication and mobility, ensuring they can effectively carry out their duties.

  • Dependent Relocation: We extend our support to expats’ dependents, assisting with relocation arrangements and ensuring a smooth transition for their families.

Disclaimer: Please be aware that Express Global Employment does not operate as an immigration service. We exclusively assist businesses seeking to deploy their expatriates overseas. Our scope of immigration support in Peru is solely confined to post-immigration employment through our Global EOR solution. We do not cater to individual requests or aspirations to work abroad.
