Expand to Indonesia Without the Hassle of Setting Up a Company: Understanding  Employer of Record (EOR) & Recruitment Solutions

Indonesia is one of the fastest-growing digital and economic markets in Southeast Asia. 
It is no surprise that many global companies are racing to find local talent or test the 
market here.

However, the main hurdle is bureaucracy: setting up a legal entity (PT PMA) in 
Indonesia takes months, requires significant capital, and involves complex legal 
processes.

So, how can foreign companies hire Indonesian talent quickly and legally? The answer is 
using an Employer of Record (EOR) solution.

What is an Employer of Record (EOR)? 
Simply put, an Employer of Record (EOR) is a service where a local partner like Accura 
acts as the "proxy" or legal employer for your workforce in Indonesia. 
While the employees are legally contracted under Accura, they work 100% under your 
management and direction. We take over all the recruitment, administrative, and legal 
burdens behind the scenes. 

Why Do Global Corporations Choose Accura's EOR? 
Compared to conventional methods, an EOR offers much higher flexibility and efficiency. 
Here is an in-depth comparison between setting up your own entity and using Accura as 
your EOR proxy: 

Business Aspect  Setting Up PT PMA (Own Entity) Accura EOR Proxy
Setup Time 3 - 6 Months (Bureaucracy & licensing) 1 - 2 Weeks (Employees are ready 
to work) 
Upfront Costs Very High (Notary, paid-up capital, office rent)  Zero / Very Low (Monthly service 
fee only) 
Legal Risk Fully borne by your company Absorbed by Accura (As the 
Legal Employer)
Talent Sourcing Must recruit independently without local networks  Fully Assisted (We find the best 
talent for you) 
Admin & Payroll Must build an HR team & internal 
systems 
Fully Managed (Consolidated in 
1 monthly invoice)
Tax Compliance Risk of fines for incorrect filing 100% Compliant (Managed by 
Accura's experts) 

Our Core Advantages

  1. End-to-End Talent Sourcing: Don't have a candidate yet? Our team will source, 
    screen, and recommend the best local talent that fits your company's 
    specifications and culture.
  2. Speed to Market: Once a candidate is selected, you can have a legally compliant 
    team ready to work in a matter of days.
  3. Zero Compliance Risk: We ensure employment contracts comply with the latest 
    local labor laws and handle all mandatory registrations for national social security 
    and healthcare (BPJS).
  4. Precision Payroll: Our system handles attendance, timely payroll distribution, 
    and monthly tax deductions and reporting (equivalent to local PPh 21) with high 
    accuracy.

How Does It Work?

Our workflow is designed to be highly streamlined:

  1. Sourcing & Screening (Optional): Tell us the candidate profile you are looking for. 
    We will filter resumes, conduct initial interviews, and recommend top candidates. 
  2. Onboarding & Legalities: We issue legally binding local employment contracts 
    and register the employees with the national insurance system. 
  3. Daily Operations: The employees start working directly under your company's 
    instruction and direction. 
  4. Monthly Management: Every month, we process payroll, tax reporting, and 
    provide other HR administrative support.

Is This Solution Right for You? 

Accura's EOR service is a strategic move for: 

  • Foreign companies looking to hire remote developers, marketers, or support staff 
    in Indonesia but lacking a local recruitment network.
  • Corporations conducting market testing before committing to heavy investments.

    bureaucracy, recruitment, and HR operations.
