Employer of Record in Mongolia

NNRoad charges 12% of the employee’s monthly employment cost, which is gross salary plus the employer’s social insurance contribution. There is no setup fee and no minimum monthly fee. For a salary of MNT 3,000,000 the fee is MNT 405,000, about US$113 a month. Employer’s liability insurance (0.60% of gross salary) and a US$67.50 bank charge per monthly payment are billed separately. See worked examples.

No. You can hire one employee through NNRoad’s Mongolia EOR, and companies from any country can use the service.

A registered Mongolian company that works under contract to NNRoad signs the employment contract as the employer. NNRoad does not have its own company in Mongolia. You sign one service agreement with NNRoad, and we remain your contracting party for the fee, the invoice and anything that needs putting right.

Mongolian citizens. If the person is a foreign national who needs a work permit, an employment visa and a residence permit, our Hire Foreigner in Mongolia service handles the hire, with its own process and pricing. Our C6 work visa guide explains one of the common routes.

Social insurance of 12.5% to 14.5% of gross salary, depending on the occupational risk class of the job. Through NNRoad you also pay employer’s liability insurance at 0.60% of gross salary and the 12% service fee. Income tax and the employee’s 11.5% social insurance come out of the employee’s gross pay.

In Mongolian tögrög (MNT), in two instalments a month on fixed days, with income tax and social insurance already deducted. You fund payroll through one monthly invoice in US dollars.

Yes: 1.5 months of the employee’s gross salary, invoiced when you sign. It is returned after the final invoice when the employment ends.

You tell us the decision and the reason. When an employer ends a job for business or capability reasons, the Labour Law requires 30 days’ written notice and severance of one to four months’ base salary, depending on length of service. We prepare the termination documents and the final pay with the local employer, then return the deposit after the final invoice.

Yes. Once your company is registered, the employee signs a new contract with it and the EOR arrangement ends. A foreign-invested company in Mongolia needs at least US$100,000 of investment per foreign investor, so many employers stay on EOR until the team is large enough to justify it. We can keep running payroll for your new company if you want.

Use an EOR when the person works regular hours under your direction as part of your team. That is employment, and it should be set up as employment. Use a contractor when the work is a defined project that the person delivers independently. Our On-Demand Talent in Mongolia service covers contractors.
