Anywr India (former Expat Partners)

What Anywr India (former Expat Partners) does

Anywr India (legal entity: Expat Immigration Services India Private Limited) is a Bengaluru-based global mobility services provider established in India in 2004 under the name Expat Partners and rebranded to Anywr India in 2024. It operates as the Indian subsidiary of Cooptalis SAS (the French-headquartered Anywr Group founded in 2012), which coordinates service delivery across 12 countries — France, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Spain, China, Canada, India, Vietnam, Sweden, Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg — with stated coverage spanning 100+ countries. The company delivers three integrated service pillars: Global Immigration Services (work permits, visas, and residence permits with compliance-first oversight), Employer of Record (EOR) Services (entity-free compliant employment with payroll, statutory compliance, and contract administration), and Relocation Services (end-to-end coordination of accommodation, administrative registrations, family transition, and departure logistics).

The technology layer is a services-platform model rather than a software-as-a-service product. Core architecture combines direct in-country entities with a vetted specialist partner network to extend compliant delivery into jurisdictions without a direct legal presence. Supporting infrastructure includes GDPR-compliant personal data processing with Data Protection Officer oversight and European contractual clauses for cross-border data flows. Anywr India itself operates with a small local footprint of about 8 employees, drawing delivery capacity from the broader Anywr Group's roughly 200 cross-border experts and approximately 900 employees worldwide (around 400 in France).

The business model is B2B professional services with enterprise field sales as the primary motion, supplemented by direct-to-consumer support for individual professionals through the Anywr Group ecosystem. Pricing is quote-based and customized to client scope, headcount, countries of operation, and service mix; revenue is a blend of recurring EOR subscriptions and project-based immigration and relocation fees. Customers are multinational corporations and their HR / Global Mobility teams — disclosed enterprise logos include Dassault, Thales, Allianz, Louis Vuitton, Danone, Decathlon, Boulanger, ZohoCorp, Mirakl, Pierre Fabre, and Blablacar. Customer acquisition combines strategic consultation calls and inbound website leads (Book a Strategy Call / Request a Mobility Consultation) with content-led demand generation through an active regulatory blog and LinkedIn presence.
