Employers are increasingly turning to mobile employees to fulfill their international staffing needs, but many companies fail to understand the complexity, costs, and compliance obligations that result from cross-border employment. Avoiding the common mobility tax mistakes can save time, money and headaches.

Did you know?

 

Utilizing a mobility tax specialist may result in additional up-front compliance costs, but those costs are usually more than repaid through the savings that result from careful tax planning. For example, the US is one of the few countries in the world that subjects its citizens and resident aliens to tax reporting while they are working overseas. To address the possibility that an overseas employee may be assessed tax in both the US and their Host country, a mobility tax specialist will help the employee utilize potential exclusions and credits on their US tax filings to minimize their US income tax bill.
