As mentioned e-Offices are set up to replace overseas branch offices.
The advantages of e-Offices over branch office are: -
Low operating cost – less than one percent of the cost compared to that of running branch offices.
Since e-Offices do not require your physical presence there, under a normal situation you would not be subjected to the local tax or labor laws.
You can run the e-Offices with your existing home team without an increase in headcounts. It makes it much easier for management to control & monitor.
It is important to note that e-Office is different from virtual office. e-Office is designed so that you do not need to employ overseas employees whereas virtual office & branch office requires you to have overseas employees.
