Relocating Human Capital in France and Internationally
In relation to international mobility, relocating employees outside of the country where the company is based is often a preliminary step to developing the company’s activity abroad.
In contemplating the relocation of an employee, the first priority of business executives and their human resources teams is to comply with the local employment law regulations.
However, having just one employee in a country other than the country of incorporation can generate numerous substantial consequences with regard to the national law, and also with respect to tax law, company law, as well as employee benefits.
In this respect, OPLEO Avocats advises both French companies aiming to develop their activities abroad and non-French companies interested in developing their activities in France.
OPLEO Avocats provides assistance that spans from managing risks associated with exploring the French market, to orienting choices in relation to the way to set up employees abroad.
Once these choices are made our teams are involved in establishing the entity and carrying out related reporting requirements, as well as in identifying the relevant legislation for employees’ taxes and benefits, and ensuring their optimization under the governing law.
