Today, employing a foreign citizen is not the most difficult task according to the rules. However, in practice, problems often arise with this, because there are so many nuances in the regulations on the recruitment of foreigners that one can easily get confused in them. And although anyone can find a job in a foreign country, the terms and conditions of an employment contract may be different.
Instructions
Step 1
When employing a foreigner for work, consider, first of all, the type of his visa. If this is a person who comes to your country on a temporary visa, then his stay is limited precisely by the duration of the visa. As a rule, this is no more than 9 days from the date of entry into the territory of a foreign state. If a foreigner with this type of documents is employed, then he can do this (and therefore extend the validity of his visa) for no more than a year. This condition must be reflected in the corresponding employment contract, which will be concluded with him. But this rule applies only when a citizen of another country gets a job in state enterprises. If a person was called to work as a highly qualified specialist to an individual, then the period of his stay is not limited to one year. But in both cases, a work permit will be required for both a foreigner and a permit to attract a foreign worker to the employing company.
Step 2
When hiring such an employee, remember that you must notify several authorities at once that you have hired a foreigner. This is the migration service and the tax, as well as employment agencies and labor inspection. In some of them, information on hiring a foreigner must be provided within three working days from the date of the employment contract, in others - within a month. And it is best not to delay this matter, as inspectors of regulatory authorities always like to come "at the wrong time." This means that in case of non-compliance with their requirements, you face fines. And considerable.
Step 3
With foreigners who temporarily reside in the territory of, for example, Russia, it is easier. You can hire them without any problems, but given the fact that temporary residence in the country is limited to 3 years. And most importantly - do not forget to check with such an employee a work permit.
Step 4
There should be no problems with those foreign citizens who have a residence permit. After all, they are not limited by any terms of residence in the country. Their only difference from the native citizens of the country is that foreigners must have a work permit in this state. At the same time, there is no need to notify the controlling migration authorities that an employee has been hired or fired.
