Your Next Strategic Move: Employee Onboarding and Operations in North Macedonia

So you've decided to broaden your business horizons by expanding into North Macedonia — a commendable decision. While initiating operations in a new market is thrilling, it has complexities, particularly in employee onboarding and payroll management.

Generally, setting up a legal entity in North Macedonia can take up to three months. Moreover, you should also account for potential liquidation procedures, which may be necessary if you choose to exit the North Macedonian market. Often, winding down operations can be more intricate than setting them up.

After you decide to expand in North Macedonia, hiring people to represent your company is your next step. Employee onboarding and payroll in North Macedonia brings with it certain legal procedures and norms that need to be observed by both employers. The legal procedure for company setup in North Macedonia generally takes around 3 months. You need to consider liquidation that might be needed if you find the market unattractive and want to withdraw. In some countries, the procedure is way more complicated than opening a business entity.

You can outsource employment of your salesforce in North Macedonia to a third-party company Acumen International. Acting as a local legal employer for your remote employees, we will run a local payroll & HR and process business expenses on your behalf. We will pay allowances and benefits to your people in North Macedonia.

As the original (factual) employer, you will maintain the substantive work relationship, making all decisions on compensation, position duties, projects and termination. We will act as a legal employer for your workforce so that you won’t have any legal ties with them. Our solution allows you to dedicate all your time to developing your business in the target country without costly and time-consuming entity setup in North Macedonia.
