Dear Seniors,

Kindly help me with the following:

1. How should an expatriate be hired?
2. What documents should he have to work in India?
3. What laws govern this type of recruitment?

An early response from all of you will be immensely helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Byomjeet,

Greetings for the day ahead!

1. You have already selected a person, so no point dwelling upon how to do it.

2. Papers
a) Multiple entry employment visa obtained at the port of origination
b) A letter of secondment from the overseas company and an employment letter from the Indian company
c) Expected duration of the employment, in writing
d) To be on the safer side, they should also have the following papers, although such papers are produced at the time of visa application:
- Criminal record verification
- Test report of Non-HIV

3. There are three laws that govern the employment of foreign nationals in India:
a) FEMA governing some types of employment
b) The relevant procedures prescribed under the Companies Act, 1956, for appointing a non-executive Director
c) Relevant sections of the Income Tax Act.

Although you should consult a labor consultant to have a detailed idea about it.

Hope it helps.
