This International Remote Work Request Form provides HR teams and global businesses with a structured way to collect, review, and approve requests from employees who want to work from another country.

Built for Modern, Distributed Teams

As remote work becomes increasingly global, companies need a clear process to evaluate international work arrangements. This template helps you capture essential information including proposed location and duration, time zone impacts, tax and legal acknowledgments, equipment and IT requirements, and justification for the request.

With Paperform's conditional logic, you can show or hide specific compliance questions based on the employee's destination country or work duration. The form guides employees through complex considerations—from visa requirements to tax treaty implications—ensuring nothing is overlooked before the request reaches leadership.
