Open EOR Dataset (2026): Provider Pricing + Global Statutory Employer Cost

Two openly licensed (CC BY 4.0) datasets from BestEOR.co for cross-border hiring research. This is a dated snapshot of the live catalog, with per-record citations and confidence flags. Provider pricing and terms: 85 employer-of-record and global-payroll providers; 50 publish a starting monthly price, the other 35 are quote-only (null, never zero). Median published fee: USD 349 per employee per month. Country employment: 139 countries with employer contribution details, minimum wage, annual leave, 15 additional employment terms and macro context. Null is not zero. Changes since the 2026-10-29b version (published earlier the same day): 101 of the 139 country records changed, all in the minimum wage and annual leave fields; no other country field changed and no column was added or removed. Sources: 57 minimum-wage and 74 annual-leave citations now point to a different page, almost all moved from a payroll vendor, leave-tracking app, aggregator or news site to the law, decree, official gazette, labour ministry, official news agency or ILO NATLEX; each new citation's passage was found again on that page on October 29, 2026, and its verified_on date is 2026-10-29.

The minimum wage of Saudi Arabia is now blank: the figure shown before was a quota threshold, not a statutory minimum wage. Changes already decided for later dates (for example the 1 January 2027 rates) are not in these files, which carry the value in force on the fetch date; the live site switches each one on its date.

Providers: Gloroots' offboarding fee and Gloroots' and RemoFirst's currency-conversion terms are now "not-published": their own pages no longer state them (re-read October 29, 2026). No price changed. Counts: cited data points 5,266 to 5,265. README.md updates that count; DATA_DICTIONARY.md is unchanged. The four data files are copied from the live public exports and validated for matching row counts, unique identifiers, citations, allowed status values, numeric types and CSV/JSON agreement. manifest.json records the fetch time and SHA-256 checksums of the data files, and SHA256SUMS.txt lists the SHA-256 checksum of every other file.
