European hours, converted to Lahore time

Your team works your business day. Here is what that shift looks like in Pakistan (PKT, UTC+5).

Your locationYour hoursLahore — European summer time (Mar–Oct)Lahore — European winter time (Oct–Mar)
Central Europe (Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam)9am–5pm CET12pm–8pm1pm–9pm
Eastern Europe (Bucharest, Athens)9am–5pm EET11am–7pm12pm–8pm
Ireland / Portugal9am–5pm1pm–9pm2pm–10pm

European hours fall in Lahore's day and early evening — a standard day shift for our team. Pakistan doesn't change its clocks, so the Lahore start moves by an hour when Europe does.

How hiring works for European companies

1. Brief

Tell us the role, the tools and your hours. We reply within one business day with a flat monthly rate.

2. Interview

We shortlist pre-vetted candidates. You interview them yourself and choose — we never force a hire.

3. Start

Most roles go from brief to working staff in 15–25 days. You direct the daily work; we handle payroll, HR and the workstation.

Contracts and invoicing

You sign one services agreement with TechKoders (Private) Limited and pay one monthly invoice, quoted in US dollars. Every staff member signs an NDA and IP-assignment agreement before starting, and works in an access-controlled office on your approved tools — see security and compliance for how we handle client data.

What it costs against a local hire

A full-time virtual assistant through TechKoders starts at $599 a month (USD), all-inclusive — salary, payroll, workstation, supervision and replacement guarantee. No setup fee, no deposit, monthly rolling agreement, and a free replacement if a hire isn't working out. Run your own numbers or see full pricing.
