Our International Mobility Experts advise you on the following topics:

  2. Immigration formalities: obtain documents and authorisations needed for your employees to work legally in the country of employment, whether within or outside the EEA.

  3. Social security: determine the applicable social security system and the implications for your employees' social protection and pension scheme.

  4. Fiscal matters: avoid double taxation and comply with the tax obligations of the country of employment, based on the double taxation treaties and the specific rules of each country.

  5. Payroll administration: manage the administration and reporting requirements of the country of employment, ensuring correct and timely social security and tax withholdings and clear reports.

  6. Corporate Tax: assess the corporate tax implications of your international projects and possible permanent foreign establishments.
