What is the optimal way for a USA company to hire foreign remote workers? 1099 contractors?

If they remain outside, they can be employed as W-2 employees or 1099 contractors. Which option is best (meaning from a tax perspective) will depend in part on the local rules in that country.

It never occurred to me that hiring on a W-2 outside the country was an option. Thanks!
