Let’s talk about your hire

Tell us about the role and we’ll come back with a transparent monthly price and timeline — usually within one business day.

Greenland, up close

A different country to hire in

Its own currency rules, its own tax authority, its own holiday act and union landscape. We turn all of that into one simple monthly service — so a hire in Greenland feels as easy as a hire at home.

In plain terms

What is an Employer of Record?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that legally employs your staff on your behalf — handling employment contracts, payroll, tax reporting, and compliance with local labour law — while you retain full day-to-day control of your team’s work.

In Greenland specifically, this means navigating Greenlandic labour law, local tax authorities (Skattestyrelsen), SIK union agreements, and the unique regulatory framework of Greenland’s Home Rule administration.

Local. Not remote.

We actually live and work here

Most EOR providers apply a generic Nordic or Danish template to Greenland — and get it wrong. We have been based in Ilulissat since 2017, handling payroll and accounting for Greenlandic organisations including Visit Greenland and Isfjordscentret.

That means you get answers from people who know the local rules, the local context, and the local market — not a call centre on another continent.

Common questions

Good to know before you hire

No. Using EOR Greenland as your Employer of Record, you can hire in Greenland legally without registering any local entity. We become the legal employer, and you retain operational control.

No. Greenland has its own labour law framework, separate from Denmark. Key differences include the Greenlandic Holiday Act, the local tax authority (Skattestyrelsen), and the SIK union (Sulinngissarsiorfik). We handle all of this for you.

It typically takes 3 weeks from initial contact to the first payroll run, depending on contract complexity and documentation. Local job advertising is always required prior to onboarding. However, the overall process is faster for Nordic citizens due to simplified documentation requirements.
