Seat leasing
A desk, a machine and a connection somebody else maintains.
For businesses that already employ staff in the Philippines, or intend to recruit them directly, and need somewhere for them to work.

- Indicative rate

What is included
A workstation with a desk and chair, a machine to an agreed specification, a business internet connection, power backup, building and floor access, facilities and security.
What is not
Employment of your staff, payroll, statutory contributions, recruitment and day-to-day supervision. Under this arrangement those are yours, which is the whole difference between it and the staff leasing model.
What you need in place
A way of lawfully employing people in the Philippines: your own registered entity, or an employer of record. Seat leasing does not supply that and cannot substitute for it.
Registration, tax residence and permanent establishment all turn on facts specific to your business, and the position differs between the Philippines and wherever you are based. Take advice in both before committing.
