    Poor rates, tax 53% max, usual thing taxed from day one, dual taxation so unless rate is stellar or you intend to live there don't bother.

    I've recently done Denmark, tax though was on scheme, prices high, lots of bureaucracy.

    In Ireland now, taxation city....

    Do not even consider thinking you will not be taxed locally.

      Cheers Stek. 3 monther, rate is not too bad, they are also offering accommodation and daily subsistence on top of rate. Some chin stroking on my side but hmmm.....
      Quite fancy Ireland for the future though....

        At this time of year, if you can deal with the above, it'd be like a paid holiday though!

          You mind reader!
          I worked for an international organisation some years back. At the weekends we'd commandeer a vehicle and head over to Budapest or other Eastern European hotspots during the summer months. It was glorious.

                I love Prague, for me is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe.

                  I did this about 15 years ago when CZ was not in the EU. They allowed me to invoice from my UK Ltd Co. It was very cheap 15 years ago but it is no longer so.
