    Working in the middle east - personal or ltd co or combination of both

    Hi

    I'd really appreciate some recommendations on accounting/tax advice for options on working in the ME via ltd co.

    I've a few questions/scenarios insofar but really, really need expert advice...

    PS not a member of IPSE, but would join if they're adept at this?

    IPSE+ should be a no brainer regardless IMO.

      Which country are you looking to work in?

      I know that at least one regular CUK poster is currently working in the middle east, but the experience may vary from country to country.

          You will be engaged personally and your salary will be paid to you personally. You will be on your employers payroll or that of a consultancy that is hiring you to the client. I do not know anyone who has ever tried to do anything any different. There is no point, your salary will be paid without deductions for tax. My salary is paid in local currency to my in country bank account, then I transfer it to my off shore current account. HTH.

              That depends on your tax residency.
