I think I am affected with all of that as well... No idea how to ask a client about the SDS for the IR35 purposes.

- If the overseas client then fails to make any determination, because they see no advantage to doing so given they're essentially out of liability anyway, is there any potential fallback to the worker?

Based on the draft legislation, if there's an obligation on the worker to inform the overseas client, I've missed it.
Based on the draft legislation, there is no obvious fallback to the worker, but I wouldn't trust to that.
Elsewhere, I wrote this:
They can argue that if there is no enforceable liability on the client because the client is outside the UK jurisdiction that the situation devolves to what it is for UK employees of foreign companies. UK employees of foreign companies are personally liable to pay their income tax and their employee NI. Foreign companies don't have to withhold tax and make payments to the UK even if they have a UK employee.
I don't think the legislation as written permits this but I can see them arguing it and you'd have to defend it. Keep good evidence that you are outside of IR35 even with a completely foreign chain.
That's better than ending up arguing over whether poorly drafted legislation means there's no liability for you.Comment
