Remote Canadian Work From Egypt

1POSTS

4 years ago

I am a Canadian citizen who has moved to Egypt for my wife to accept a teaching role. I am trying to determine my eligibility of work when it comes to remote work for a Canadian company. We plan to return to Canada at some point and so are still 'factual residents' of Canada.

To be clear, I live in Cairo as a Canadian citizen and I want to work for a Canadian company remotely. What are the tax and legal implications of this, if any?

Thank you,

Mike

hello and wlc to egypt
my family lives in canada so as my friends as far as I know most companies in canada got some conducts to work only within the borders of canada when it comes to remotely due to taxations and insurance so as the company to avoid any penalties so my advice to u consult first ur hr for the possibility to work remotely from diff country and if they allowed u my assumptions u ill be charged for canadian taxations and the remaining will be wired transfered to u in cairo via ur bank acc after first u open an acc here or via western union
btw I m ur same as ur case
enjoy ur stay
