It would ultimately be more of a question of the laws of your country. From the US's perspective, even if you were an employee, it would be foreign source income as long as you remain outside of the US so they aren't going to gain any taxes if you were considered an employee.

Thanks, makes sense. On my side is all good. I formed a company to export services. But that’s why I wonder why more companies don’t do this

What did paperwork did you have to do to form a company to export services?

Is it possible to just export services as a sole proprietor without forming a company?

I think it depends on your country. Also I am not sure how well legal terms translate. I am in Brazil, so I created what I would call a ”sole proprietor company” that can export services.
