EMPLOYER OF RECORD (EOR), also known as Staff Leasing, is a business practice that is recognized and regulated in Bulgaria. It involves a licensed Professional Employment Organization (PEO) that provides temporary employment services and assumes the legal responsibilities of being the official employer for the employees.
In Bulgaria, only a PEO – Professional Employment Organization that holds the necessary license can operate as an Employer of Record. This license ensures that the organization meets the requirements set by the regulatory authorities and is qualified to carry out the responsibilities associated with being an employer, together with the mandatory insuarance for Employer’s Responsibility.
In addition to being a licensed business activity, an Employer of Record in Bulgaria is also required to be officially listed in the national temporary employment providers Employment Agency register. This register is a government-maintained database that includes authorized organizations permitted to offer temporary employment services as EORs.
The inclusion of an Employer of Record in this register demonstrates that they have met the specific criteria and requirements set by the Bulgarian government to operate as a provider of temporary employment services. Being listed in the register is an official recognition of their compliance with legal and regulatory obligations related to temporary employment.
The register serves as a valuable resource for both employers and job seekers. It allows businesses in need of temporary staffing solutions to easily identify and engage with reputable and authorized Employment Organizations. For job seekers, the register provides transparency and assurance that the Employer of Record they are working with is legitimate and operating within the legal framework.

Employer of Record is a service which does not include the recruitment of employees. The two services are with different conditions and are executed from different professionals in our team.
