About activpayroll

Headquartered in Aberdeen, with a further Scottish office in Edinburgh, activpayroll concentrates on payroll and people-related compliance for employers that operate across borders. The group says it has a presence in over 150 countries across the Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific, with service centres in cities such as Paris, Frankfurt, Dublin, Cape Town and Dubai. Its work covers multi-country payroll processing, funding of international payrolls, global mobility programmes and HR support, delivered through its own activ8 software platform that connects to HR and ERP systems. Clients are organisations expanding abroad, hiring in new countries or sending staff on international assignments. The firm also handles employer-side tax obligations, including assignment tax filings, and, in some markets, employer-of-record arrangements for hiring without a local entity. It does not market company formation as a standalone service, and the site does not specify the languages its teams work in.
