Employing someone from Malaysia

[thinkingcapon]

I'd like to employ someone whose recently moved to the Uk from Malaysia
What paperwork do I/we need please?

Do they have the right to live and work in UK?

What do they need to prove this ?

Hello, they will require leave to remain and the right work in the UK, here is a link with further information regarding this

To be able to employ someone who is not a permanent resident in the UK there are certain rules which are applicable, here is another link which explains the criteria
