How EOR Onboarding Works | Codezilla Teams

Step 01 - Requirement & Alignment

Tell Us Who You Want to Hire

You identify and interview your ideal candidates just as you normally would. Once you have made a hiring decision, simply share the candidate's compensation details, role designation, start date, and any specific equipment or benefits requirements with our onboarding team.

Need help finding talent? We also offer an end-to-end Recruitment & Screening concierge. Our local team can source and technically screen candidates based on your exact requirements, handing you the final top 3 to interview.

"You focus 100% on evaluating candidate culture fit and technical capability. Once you say 'hire', our legal apparatus takes over immediately."

Fast alignment: share compensation and role details via our secure dashboard.

Customized, locally legally vetted employment agreements issued in 24 hours.

Step 02 - Legal Employment & Contract

We Employ & Onboard Them

Within 24 hours, our legal specialists prepare an employment agreement fully compliant with Indian central and state labor laws. We conduct digital KYC verification (PAN, Aadhaar, educational certificates) and enroll the employee into our statutory benefit programs as their legal Employer of Record.

Step 03 - Ongoing Administration

We Manage Monthly Employment Admin

Once active, we handle the ongoing administrative and financial burden. Every month, we calculate and disburse salaries in INR, withhold and deposit statutory taxes (TDS, Professional Tax), file monthly statutory returns, and manage employee leave balances and health insurance claims.

You receive a single, consolidated monthly invoice in your home currency (USD, GBP, EUR) covering all employee salaries, statutory contributions, and our flat management fee.

HR specialist processing monthly compliance

Automated monthly payroll with 100% statutory tax compliance across India.

Complete operational control: your team works directly in your Slack, Jira, and GitHub.

Step 04 - Day-to-Day Operations

You Build & Scale Your Business

Your team members work directly with your internal managers, participate in your stand-ups, and contribute to your products just like any regular employee. We stay invisible behind the scenes until HR support or compliance updates are required.

"Zero legal friction. You lead the product roadmap; we guard your compliance boundary."

Future-Proof Handoff

The $0 Transition Fee & Exclusivity Guarantee

Unlike IT outsourcing agencies that claim 'ownership' over the developers they assign to your account and demand exorbitant buyout fees when you want to employ them yourself, our model is built on exact alignment with your growth:

100% Exclusivity Covenant: Your team works solely for your organization. They never rotate across an agency's client accounts or balance concurrent vendor projects.
Zero Buyout Penalties ($0 Transition Fee): When you scale to 30+ employees and decide to incorporate your own Indian Private Limited (`Pvt Ltd`) subsidiary, we transfer every single employee instantly with a guaranteed $0 buyout fee.
Full Seniority & Gratuity Preservation: We execute a tripartite transfer agreement that preserves employee tenure, accumulated leave balances, and statutory gratuity credit without disruption.

Seamless zero-penalty transition to your Indian subsidiary

Scale from 1 to 100+ engineers via EOR, then transition to your local entity for $0.
