El Salvador Compliance

Operating in El Salvador requires adherence to the Salvadoran Labor Code, overseen by the Ministry of Labor. Employer social security and pension contributions are a key obligation, typically totaling 10-20% of salary. The standard payroll cycle is monthly. A major compliance risk for foreign employers is misclassifying workers, leading to severe penalties from labor authorities. PayDD's EOR service acts as the legal employer, assuming all liability. We ensure correct classification, timely filings with the Salvadoran Social Security Institute (ISSS), and accurate monthly payroll execution, fully mitigating this risk.

Case Study

A US-based SaaS company needed to hire three developers in San Salvador but faced slow, expensive international wire transfers and complex local tax registration. By using PayDD's EOR service, they onboarded employees in hours with AI KYC. PayDD manages all compliance and runs monthly payroll with T+0 instant USD settlements via local bank transfer, eliminating SWIFT fees and delays. The result was a 70% reduction in administrative costs and seamless, fully compliant operations from day one.
