    FAQs

    Not sure how it works? Start here — we’ve got answers to your most frequent doubts.

    No, that’s not true. Illegal worker assignment occurs when:

    • Company A hires a worker, but this worker provides services exclusively for another company B.
    • Both companies, A and B, are incorporated in Spain or have legal presence in the country.
    • The company that assigns the worker does not assume labour responsibilities and is displaced in management vis-à-vis the worker.

    The EOR model is not yet expressly regulated in Spain, but it is not illegal. In fact, the Court of Justice of the European Union has issued a ruling that opens the door to recognizing the EOR model in Spain, provided that the EOR fully assumes labour, tax, and social security obligations, acting as the legal employer of the worker.

    At IberiaEOR, we scrupulously comply with this framework, avoiding any irregularities. We ensure that:

    • Your labour rights are fully protected and respected.
    • We conduct comprehensive monitoring of your work activity (schedules, vacations, sick leave, etc.).
    • We manage your vacations and social benefits.
    • We keep you informed at all times about your labour rights and benefits in Spain, including periodic medical examinations covered by IberiaEOR.
    • We provide training in occupational risk prevention, which is mandatory in Spain but often omitted by many EORs for economic reasons.

    No. We offer a comprehensive all-in-one service. In addition to the contract, we manage the entire relocation process to Spain, including your residence permit. We even help you find accommodation if needed. Our goal is not only for you to work legally, but also to integrate perfectly into Spain.

    From the moment of your hiring, we guarantee:

    • Clear and complete information about your rights.
    • Full coverage from day one in the Spanish Social Security system.
    • Access to our platform to stay in constant contact with our team and your company.
    • IberiaEOR assumes full legal responsibility for your employment, so we are the first ones interested in managing everything correctly.

    Not always. If you need a work and residence permit, hiring cannot be instantaneous. Be wary of offers that promise immediate hiring without prior procedures. A serious service committed to legal compliance will never make impossible promises.

    No. You don’t need a residence permit to enter and work in Spain due to the free movement of EU citizens, protected by Article 45 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. However, you must apply for the EU Citizen Registration Certificate within the first 3 months in Spain. IberiaEOR will advise you on obtaining it, using your employment contract as a key document

    The process is fast: generally less than 24 hours from when you provide us with your personal data to prepare the contract. Since no residence permit is required, the procedure is simple and agile.

    Yes, you need a permit. That’s why one of the first questions we’ll ask you is your nationality, as the process varies depending on it. Our team, composed of lawyers and specialists in immigration law, will handle all the necessary procedures to obtain your work and residence permit.

    It depends on various factors, such as the type of position and your nationality. In the best-case scenario, the process takes around 30 days, although in some cases it may extend for several months due to administrative complexity.
