# Some say that it is permitted for a Jew who is in a location where it isn't Shabbat to ask a non-Jew who is in a location where it is Shabbat to do melacha for them since we follow the location of the Jew. This is relevant to a Jew in Israel asking a non-Jew in America to do melacha after Shabbat for the next 7 hours. Alternatively, if a Jew in California calls a non-Jew in New York before Shabbat starts in California but it already started in New York.<ref>Yalkut Yosef Shabbat 5752 v. 2 p. 243 307:3:9</ref>

Sh"t Chavot Yair 46 says if you tell one non-Jew to tell another one, that is permitted even for torah violations and certainly for violations that are only midirabanan.</ref>
