Q: If I employ a foreigner as staff, is his salary subject to monthly tax deduction (MTD)? Do I need to provide Form EA to him?

A: Yes, even if your staff is a foreigner, as long as his remuneration has exceeded the taxability threshold, his salary will be subject to MTD. You will also need to provide Form EA to him to indicate the remuneration that he has earned.
