In this episode of WTF Podcast | HR Forte, I dive into the intricate world of payroll compliance in Asia for 2026. Navigating the diverse payroll systems across countries like Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand, and Hong Kong is no small feat. I explore the four core pillars of compliance: payroll tax and withholding, statutory contributions, employment law, and digital submissions. With constant regulatory changes and unique local requirements, the risks are high, and the margin for error is slim. I emphasize the need to move away from manual processes and embrace automation for real-time accuracy. Join me as I uncover why prevention is always cheaper than correction and how to ensure your payroll system is designed for flawless compliance.
