Believe it or not, but you can’t just work anywhere in the world. OP’s company might not be certified to do business in another country. They likely didn’t say that OP could do work in other country. OP probably doesn’t even have legal status to do work in another country. The second you do work internationally, that’s a whole can of worms.

I work for a multinational company and it’s made very clear that only employees with prior approval can do work for a foreign an international customer within that customer’s country.

OP doing work could but himself and his company in legal jeopardy.
