Short Term Business Travellers

Business travel is integral to many international organisations, as employees frequently travel for conferences, client meetings, investment opportunities, and more. Increased scrutiny at borders and by tax authorities means managing corporate risk along with tax, payroll, social security and posted-worker compliance can be complex, especially as each country has its own set of tax laws and regulations.

While such travel doesn’t always lead to tax liabilities, certain criteria and obligations must still be followed especially if senior employees are travelling. Many organisations are increasingly leveraging technology to track and manage their business traveller population.

Technological solutions can track travel schedules and facilitate accurate reporting across multiple jurisdictions. This not only eases the administrative burden but also provide real-time updates, allowing businesses to respond swiftly to regulatory changes or audits.
