FAQs
Answers for German companies planning India hiring.
Can a German company hire employees in India without a subsidiary?
Yes. A German company can use an India EOR or suitable local employment arrangement to hire before establishing its own Indian legal entity.
When should a German company move from EOR to entity setup?
Entity setup may make sense when the India team grows, local contracting is needed, or the company wants deeper operational control.
