Fortunately, nothing like that has happened to me so far. It's definitely not legal and, in my opinion, highly unethical as well. While it's understandable that companies scramble to protect their cash flow now one still has to pay one's dues. Since you're based in another country it'll be difficult to quickly enforce your claim unless they have a local branch. Invoice factoring might be an option but in the current climate this could be quite expensive. Still, getting paid x % of the original invoice amount is better than getting nothing. Taking out a loan on accounts receivable might be another option.
