Topic: International Mobility Solutions: 
Exploring the tax environments of various countries for long-term international assignment of workers

With this session format, we aim to provide a regular meeting point for members to exchange practical knowledge and experiences. The focus is on real-life, day-to-day challenges, offering insights you can directly apply in your work, while also learning about the specific features of other jurisdictions. At the same time, these sessions are an opportunity to connect more closely with fellow members, build relationships, and explore opportunities for business and collaboration.

This session will focus on international mobility solutions, exploring the tax and social security environments across jurisdictions for long-term assignments.

During the session, we will discuss a highly practical case study. Participants are encouraged to actively contribute their insights and experiences.

Questionnaire for the Case Study

To help us prepare the session, we kindly ask you to take a few minutes to complete this short questionnaire about the tax regime on assignment of workers for your jurisdiction. 
This will allow us to present a brief comparative overview of countries at the start of the session, so that we can focus most of the session on key practical issues and challenges that advisors are likely to encounter. 

CASE STUDY:

A multinational corporation with subsidiaries across all continents is planning to assign its VP Sales and Marketing to a region in Europe, the Middle East, Asia or the US for a period of 4 to 6 years, to implement a new group-wide marketing strategy. The compensation package includes a base salary of EUR 250,000, a housing allowance of EUR 48,000 per year, and a cost-of-living allowance of EUR 52,000. The individual is single and has no dependent children.

The choice of assignment location will depend on factors such as income tax burden, social security costs, and key features of the local tax system.
