Like the United States, most countries have laws, regulations and rules regarding work and residence authorization for foreigners entering their labor markets. Jackson & Hertogs provides your organization with a single point of contact to navigate through the foreign work authorization application process. We manage the foreign work authorization application process for you, apprising you of the required documents and requirements, preparing the applications through our foreign co-counsel or immigration service provider, and arranging to have the applications filed with the appropriate government authorities. Where possible, we also arrange the collection of the work authorization documents for the employee. Because some countries impose extensive document requirements, and/or labor market tests that have long application processing times, we encourage you to contact us well in advance to discuss the feasibility and timing of work authorization in a particular country. Please remember to consult tax and employment law advisors about the ramifications of such transfers for all the parties involved.
