I am a PR holder. I have recently received a job offer which requires me to work in a foreign country. The company has been registered in Ontario and my job would be to help them establish an office in the foreign country that I'm going to. what kinds of documents do I have to obtain in order for the days that I'm abroad to count as my residency days in Canada. I will be outside Canada for at least 2 years. I may come back and visit.

If you are hired by a Canadian employer and transferred to an overseas position, your days will count for meeting the PR requirements. However, if you are only planning to be gone for 2 years, you do not even have to count on that because the PR residency requirements only require you to be in Canada for 2 years out of 5.
Your days outside Canada will however not count in order to apply for citizenship.
