Hiring contractors in Timor-Leste (East Timor) can be a rollercoaster
Hiring and onboarding independent contractors from East Timor, also known as Timor-Leste or the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, can be a challenge. This island nation has two official languages, Tetun and Portuguese, and two additional working languages, Indonesian and English. You’ll need to make sure all documents—including employment contracts—are in one of these four languages while maintaining compliance with the laws and regulations passed by the National Parliament of Timor-Leste. But with Rippling, you can expand your global team quickly and compliantly.
