Facts & Stats

Covered in epic mountain ranges, vineyards, and over 8,000 rivers, Azerbaijan’s breathtaking natural beauty makes it look like a nation drawn from fantasy romantic literature.

A swathe of skyscrapers across the country’s capital city symbolise the rapid modernization of Azerbaijan over the last two decades. The so-called Land of Fire is a charming country capturing the banks of the Caspian Sea with a fast-growing economy that presents an ideal location for skilled digital nomads.

Grow your team in Azerbaijan with Remote

You can pay contractors now in Azerbaijan with Remote in some currencies (talk to a Remote expert now for more details).

Companies hiring in Azerbaijan are typically required to either own a legal entity in the country or work with a global employment solutions provider to employ on the company's behalf. Developing the processes required to manage payroll, benefits, taxes, and onboarding in countries like Azerbaijan can get complicated fast, especially without localised expertise. If you’re looking to start hiring in a country like this, using a global HR platform like Remote makes it easy to hire workers in full compliance with all local legislation. In the countries where we do offer our Employer of Record product, Remote takes on responsibility for compliance so you can focus on hiring great talent and growing your business.

Risks of misclassification

Azerbaijan, like many other countries, treats self-employed individuals or contractors and full-time employees differently. Misclassification of contractors in Azerbaijan may lead to fines and penalties for the offending company.
