Does deputation to another country is considered under purposes of employment for residency calculation of 120days?

Ans: Dear Sir/ Madam,

Thank you for writing in

The calculation of residency days for tax purposes can vary depending on the specific tax laws and regulations of the country in question. Each country has its own rules regarding tax residency, and deputation to another country may or may not be considered as part of the residency calculation.

In some countries, the period of deputation to another country may be counted as part of the residency days, while in others, it may not be considered. It depends on factors such as the tax treaty between the two countries, the duration of the deputation, the nature of the work being performed, and the individual's ties to the home country.

To determine how deputation to another country is treated for tax residency calculation, it is essential to consult the tax laws and regulations of both the home country and the host country, as well as any applicable tax treaties between them. Additionally, seeking advice from a qualified tax professional who is familiar with the specific tax laws of both countries can provide more accurate and personalized guidance. Tax residency rules can be complex, and it's crucial to ensure compliance with the tax regulations of all relevant jurisdictions.

Hope this helps. All the very best.

To Your Success. Be You. Be Confident
