Disclaimer

The terms on which this website and its guides are provided. Last updated September 2026.

Information, not advice

The content of this website — the rankings, the guides and the answers to frequently asked questions — is general information about employing people in Asia. It is not legal, tax, immigration or financial advice, and it does not create a client or advisory relationship. Decisions that turn on your facts should be taken with a qualified adviser in the country concerned.

Accuracy and currency

Employment, social-security, tax and immigration rules change, in every Asian country, and several are changing as we write. We date each page and review content regularly, but we do not warrant that any page is complete or current at the moment you read it. Statutory figures should be confirmed against the relevant national authority.

Our rankings

The rankings on this site are our opinions, formed from publicly available information and, where stated, direct experience, against the criteria published on each page. We have no commercial relationship with, and receive no payment from, any provider listed. Scores are not measurements and should not be relied on as the sole basis for choosing a provider. Names and trademarks of providers belong to their owners and are used only to identify them. Where we describe a provider’s entity coverage or licences we are recording that provider’s public statements unless we say otherwise; verify them before relying on them.

Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law we exclude liability for any loss arising from reliance on the content of this site. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Corrections

If you are a provider named on this site and believe an entry is inaccurate, tell us through the contact page. We correct factual errors promptly and note material changes on the page.

Intellectual property

The content of this site is ours unless stated otherwise and may be quoted with attribution and a link.
