As Deel completes the acquisition of Omnipresent, we’re bringing all Omnipresent-origin workers and clients into Deel’s unified global Employer of Record (EOR) infrastructure. This means that we are transitioning your EORs into Deel’s in-house owned entities. With this, Deel will become the official employer and manage your EOR's employment end to end. This will allow you to benefit from faster response times, enhanced compliance, and improved service offerings.
At Deel, we’ve built one of the world’s most trusted and scalable EOR solutions — designed to give you and your teams a smoother, more compliant, and more reliable employment experience across every country you operate in.
This guide outlines what to expect during the migration, how your workers will transition into Deel, and what this means for your ongoing operations. Our goal is to ensure clarity, continuity, and a seamless journey for both you and your workforce.

Overview
Following Deel’s acquisition of Omnipresent, we are aligning employment arrangements to Deel’s long-term operating model. Employees originally supported through Omnipresent may be employed under different structures depending on country coverage and local requirements. This guide explains:
- how employees are supported going forward,
- when action may be required from you, and
- what to expect if and when a transition applies to your workforce.
Our goal is to ensure clarity, continuity of employment, and a smooth experience for both you and your employees.
What This Step Means for You
Your workers will continue their day-to-day responsibilities as usual, and their employment will not be interrupted.
They will be re-onboarded onto the Deel platform, which includes reviewing their details and signing a new Deel employment agreement.
This process is explained in detail under What happens when a transition takes place.
No disruption to your business
- Employment terms remain (salary, time off, seniority, etc.) where applicable
- Benefits will be offered as before. There will be equivalent replacements offered in case that's needed.
- You will continue managing expenses, leave, and workers in Deel
- Invoicing remains unchanged (already issued via Deel), and management fees will be honored
Employment Models
Employees supported through Omnipresent today may be employed in one of the following ways:
1. Employees employed via Omnipresent legal entities
In this model, Omnipresent is the legal employer of the worker.
2. Employees employed via third-party local employment providers
In this model, employment is held by a third-party local provider managed by Omnipresent on your behalf.
How and when employees transition depends on which model applies.
How Employees Are Supported Going Forward
Employees employed via third-party local providers
Employees employed via third-party providers will not remain on this model indefinitely. Where supported and compliant, these employees will be rehired onto Deel-managed entities to ensure continued platform support, compliance, and service continuity.
What this means for you:
- Deel will generate a quote per employee in the Deel platform, reflecting existing employment terms.
- Quotes must be reviewed and accepted within the communicated timeframe.
- For current cases, quotes must be accepted within one week of being created & no later than 10 March.
If a quote is not accepted:
If a quote is not accepted by the applicable deadline, the employee will move off the Deel platform and continue employment directly with the existing provider outside of Deel. Your Customer Success Manager (CSM) will guide you through the next steps if this applies.
Employees employed via Omnipresent legal entities
Employees employed via Omnipresent legal entities are not required to transition by default.
These employees will remain under their current employing entity unless and until a specific operational, compliance, or business need arises (for example, entity availability, regulatory changes, service requirements, or at your request)
When such a need is identified:
- Deel will generate a quote in the platform, and
- You will receive communication outlining the next steps.
No action is required unless you receive specific communication and a quote.
What You Need to Do
-
If you receive a quote in Deel:
Review and accept it within the communicated timeframe to proceed with continued Deel support. -
If you do not receive a quote:
No action is required at this time.
You will always receive communication before any change applies to your employees.
What Happens When a Transition Takes Place
1. Client Notification & Quote Acceptance
- When your workers are ready to migrate, you receive a quote in Deel per employee
- Accepting the quote initiates the onboarding workflow
- Once the quote is accepted, you can add any preferred non-statutory benefits for the employee directly via the Deel platform.
2. Employee onboarding
After the quote is accepted:
- The employee receives an invitation to onboard onto Deel,
- They complete required information and sign a Deel employment agreement where required by local law,
- Deel’s HR Experience team supports the employee throughout the process.
There is no break in employment, and current employment only ends once Deel onboarding is complete.
3. Finalization
After onboarding:
- The worker becomes legally employed by the appropriate Deel entity
- Payroll, benefits, and support continue through Deel
- The offboarding from their current legal employer will require action and our HRX team will guide each worker through this offboarding process as well
Frequently Asked Questions

Invoicing continues through Deel as it does today. Management fees remain aligned with your current agreement. Any future changes will be communicated clearly in advance.. Please note that individual charges (i.e., benefits) may change depending on the employment details and country.
[ACCORDION] What happens with vacation accruals?
Accrued leave will be transitioned appropriately, based on local law and external partner or entity requirements.
[ACCORDION] What about employees with visas or mobility requirements?
Employees with mobility or immigration needs are handled on a case-by-case basis to avoid risk to employment or visa status. These cases may take longer and will only proceed when fully supported.
[ACCORDION] Will my worker lose access to historical documents?
Employees will be requested to submit all relevant compliance documents, which is an easy step to complete on the Deel platform as part of the onboarding process. Documents provided to Omnipresent will remain stored.
[ACCORDION] Do I need to do anything now?
Action is only required if you receive a quote in Deel. Where a quote is issued, it must be reviewed and accepted within the specified timeframe. If no quote has been shared, no action is required.
[ACCORDION] How will deposits be handled during the migration?
You will not be required to repay a new deposit as part of this migration.
Any existing deposit already paid under your current Omnipresent or external partner contract will be seamlessly migrated to the new Deel employment setup.
There is no action needed from your side. We will ensure that your current deposit automatically transitions to the new Deel contract.
