With a small amount, it will be more difficult since it's not like Small Claims Court will be convenient for you to attend. Also, your contract might specify arbitration. If that's the case, remote arbitration might be possible (especially now because of Covid-19). With that said, even if you win at judgment/arbitration, there is always the matter of collecting. And a lawyer might be required for the collection as well (if the client drags their feet on paying off any judgment). | |

| Nov 13, 2020 at 10:18 | comment | added | Philipp | Regarding the question itself: This might depend on the exact legal basis of your work. You might be self-employed with a client abroad. You might work for a company in India, but permanently assigned to a customer of that company abroad. Or you might be directly employed by a foreign company. | |

| Nov 13, 2020 at 10:12 | comment | added | Philipp | I removed the last part of your question because it made the question incredibly broad. Stack Exchange works best for specific and well-defined questions. It's not a good platform for open question where anyone can post anything about a topic they feel might be interesting. | |
