- Why don’t we send one of our own people/an assignee?
- Should we set up an entity, in either the short or long-term?
- What registrations need to be applied for?
- What benefits will HR need to put in place?
- How will our employees get paid and see their pay cheques?
- How quickly can I get all this set-up?
