Israel Payroll Services & Solutions

We can establish and run your Israel payroll, even if you haven't registered an Israeli entity

Establishing and maintaining an Israel payroll

Israel is a fascinating country, with a rich history ranging back thousands of years, a diverse culture, and a highly developed economy. For these reasons and more, it is a great place to do business and many foreign organizations look to build and expand in the country.

One important element of this kind of foreign expansion is hiring locally, and this means setting up an Israel payroll. Establishing Israel payroll involves navigating a complex set of unique and frequently changing employment laws, which can be a lengthy and difficult process.

At Horizons, we specialize in providing Israel payroll outsourcing support services, offering organizations a way to outsource the time-consuming process of setting up a payroll. We offer flexible service packages, whether or not your organization already has an Israeli entity.

Why choose the Horizons payroll solution?

If you have an entity

If you have already established a legal entity for your business in Israel, we can provide our system for Israel payroll outsourcing to help you build and manage your local payroll. In addition, we can manage all of you HR, contracts, and legal compliance work to ensure you are fully equipped to hire locally as rapidly as possible

This level of outsourcing is a good choice for any company that already has an entity in Israel and could benefit from support from Israel experts.

If you don’t have an entity

If your business has not registered an official entity in the country, then you have the option of hiring through our Israeli subsidiary. We can act as employer of record in the country, set up and manage your Israel payroll, and handle associated HR, administration, and compliance.

This solution provides a low-risk, scalable, and flexible route into the Israeli marketplace so you can access all of the benefits of employing locally without any of the hassle.
