Navigating Legal Compliance for Employee Transfers from India to Czech Republic: Any Advice?

Hello, we are looking to transfer a few of our employees from our India office (Gurgaon) to visit our Czech Office (Prague) for a minimum of 1 year. We want to transfer them via ICT card and want the payroll to continue from India, with taxes and social security covered in India. At the same time, we do not want double taxation for our employees; we only want the taxes to be deducted in India.

Could someone please guide us on the legal compliances that we will need to follow for this situation? Are there any letters or agreements to sign in this case?

Thank you

Hi, you may consider this as deputation rather than a transfer.

While the salary can be processed in India and credited to an Indian salary account, allowances for deputation can be paid through a forex card, which can be used for food/travel expenses. I hope the accommodation part will be taken care of by the company.

Additionally, the company should provide overseas travel insurance for those employees on deputation.

Is deputation valid for long-term engagement?

Is deputation valid even for long-term engagement, e.g., 1 year to 3 years?
