Ho Schi My direct legal employer is a US entity. My employment contract follows US law and I'm paid in USD. My income is paid to a US account in USD.

that US entity happens to own other legal entities (and hires) in many countries, including Thailand.

Anonymous participant 272 you're not wrong. Can you provide more information?

Sharing more light: the company does not hire my skillset locally, nor do I directly work with anyone employed in the local office. I am employed remotely by a local company in my home country. I don't know the details, but we are effectively "branches" that don't touch coming from the same tree (residing in another country).

For example, the thailand office is mostly offering customer support services for Thai people, whereas my skillset, job title, and org in the company is finance.

I am trying to follow the proper rules. And I did not hide anything about this on my application.
