How to Hire in Latin America Without Opening a Local Entity

The Smart Way to Build a Remote Team in Latin America

Latin America has become one of the top regions for hiring remote talent. However, many companies hesitate because they believe hiring internationally requires opening a local entity.

The good news? It doesn’t.

The Problem With Opening a Local Entity

Setting up a legal entity abroad is:

* Expensive

* Time-consuming

* Legally complex

* Difficult to unwind

For most companies, especially startups and growing teams, this approach slows growth instead of enabling it.

The Alternative: Contractor-Based Hiring

By hiring professionals as contractors through a trusted partner, companies can:

* Start hiring immediately

* Avoid legal exposure

* Maintain flexibility

* Scale teams up or down easily
