Leading EV manufacturer successfully relocated 117 employees across 5 countries in 8 months, with full compliance and significantly reduced legal risk.
Background story
Our client is a leading manufacturer in the automotive industry, specializing in electric vehicle business and operating globally. As the company rapidly expanded into new markets, they needed a comprehensive solution to manage cross-regional workforce relocation, compliance, and HR strategy.
The challenge
As the business grew, managing employee cross-border mobility became a major challenge. The company faced difficulties in visa processes, local labor law compliance, and timely global team relocation. Delays in work permit processing and talent relocation affected production schedules and hindered their ability to meet market demand.
We provided end-to-end global mobility services, successfully relocating 117 employees across 5 countries within 8 months. We managed the entire process from work permit applications to employee onboarding, ensuring every step complied with local laws and regulations. Our team worked closely with the company's HR department to align global talent mobility strategy with their business objectives, supporting their market entry and talent deployment.

Costs we helped avoid
These are the costs we help companies avoid when they use our EOR and global expansion services instead of setting up on their own.
Total DIY cost (per country)
In this case: total DIY cost = per country × 5 countries.
By using our global mobility and EOR services across 5 countries, the client avoided total DIY cost × 5: entity formation and employer registrations, 12 months office rent and fit-out, office equipment, (117 × recruitment + immigration/relocation), legal setup, payroll setup, recurring run-costs, and risk buffer in each country.
