Why Hire in Mongolia
Expanding to Mongolia
Mongolia offers growing opportunities across mining engineering, geology, IT development, financial services, and renewable energy, supported by an educated, young workforce in Ulaanbaatar.
An EOR solution provides international employers with immediate operational capabilities, handling localized contracts and statutory filings without setting up a Mongolian branch office.
Employment Laws
Employment Regulations in Mongolia
Under the revised Labor Law, standard working hours are 40 hours per week (8 hours per day). Probationary periods cannot exceed 3 months. Contract terminations require valid statutory justification and written notice ranging from 30 to 45 days based on contract conditions.
Taxes & Benefits
Taxation and Employee Benefits
Employers contribute around 12.5% to 14.5% of salary toward Social Insurance (pension, health, industrial accident, and unemployment insurance). Mandatory benefits include 15 working days of paid annual vacation (scaling with tenure), public holidays, and paid sick leave.
Payroll Compliance & SIGO Filings
Mongolian Payroll Standards
Payroll is administered on a monthly cycle in MNT. Employers calculate Personal Income Tax (PIT) deductions and remit social insurance payments directly to the Social Insurance General Office (SIGO) by monthly deadlines.
IP Rights & Privacy Compliance
Intellectual Property and Data Security
Rights to intellectual property and software created by an employee during regular contractual duties belong to the employer under domestic IP laws. Personal data handling complies with the Law on Protection of Personal Data.
