Evidence & documents
Does a high salary or equity ownership satisfy the high remuneration criterion?
Updated: October 29, 2026
The comparison must be explainable. Separate base salary, bonuses, equity and other remuneration; provide supporting records and explain the occupation, location, period and comparison source. Company valuation, ownership percentage and unrealized equity value cannot simply be treated as actual salary. A particular percentile is not an automatic approval threshold. Verify the remuneration facts before assessing the comparison evidence.
