[ACCORDION] Do I need a login for the Deel app as a direct employee?
We recommend that you create a Deel account if possible. It makes accessing your payslips and tax documents very easy. And, you will have access to our wonderful Perks section!
But, many organizations have their own Human Resources Information Systems in place and may not offer the Deel platform to direct employees. In that case, your employer fills out all relevant information and Deel pushes the payslip to your HRIS system, for you to download.
[ACCORDION] What does it mean to be a direct employee?
With Deel Global Payroll, we run payroll for your employer but we are not your legal employer of record.
Our job is to ensure accurate payroll once your employer submits and approves their payroll package.
[ACCORDION] Do I have to handle taxes?
Deel is able to handle all payments on required taxes to the relevant authorities.
Deel can calculate tax contributions for both employee and employer based on local laws and regulations. Additionally, we register and de-register your employment with the government on behalf of your employer, where required.
If your country mandates end-of-year tax documentation, we will ship those forms to you.
We do not do personal tax filings or personal tax returns.
[ACCORDION] How much vacation time do I have?
If you have access to the Deel app, you can click on your contract and review your allowable time off in the PTO box.
You can see the vacation accrual start date, and how many annual vacation days you are entitled to. However, you will not be able to see how many PTO days you’ve taken so far.
[ACCORDION] What if I am not fully onboarded before my country's payroll cut off date?
If the employee is not fully onboarded on time, then it may be necessary to push their start date forward and delay their first payday.
[ACCORDION] Can I change my employment country if I move?
Once your Global Payroll direct employee contract has been created, neither you nor your employer can change the employment country on the Deel platform.
You will have to contact us for further assistance.
[ACCORDION] Will signing up on Deel have any impact on my existing contract or salary?
No, the only difference is where you’ll see payslips, documents, and notices on the Deel app.
If your client has enabled Deel HR as their HRIS system, you also see the People Directory tab on your home page. This allows you to view and filter your team members by location, team, and manager.

[ACCORDION] I migrated to Global Payroll direct employee from an EOR employee account. Do I need a new login?
No, you will still have the same, single login to access the Deel platform.
From your home page, click your avatar and you can toggle between your EOR Employee and Direct Employee profiles.
