Short answer
Working abroad, remote work rules, freelancing, contracts, social security and the legal side of work across borders. The answer to “What notice periods apply to expat contracts?” depends on a few factors below. Arthur can work through them for your situation and turn them into your Global Citizen Guide.
What it depends on
- Own entities. Whether the employer of record uses its own entities or third parties.
- Contractor compliance. Protection against misclassifying employees as contractors.
- Benefits and contributions. Statutory benefits, social security and supplementary benefits.
- Payroll and currencies. Payment in local currency and handling of exchange.
- Contracts and IP. Local employment contracts and intellectual-property assignment.
Warning signs
- Working abroad on a tourist status
- Employer-of-record chains with unclear liability
