Hi All,
Disclaimer: first post, not sure what I'm doing, please don't be too unkind.
I am a UK based IT contractor operating through a limited co and am in an existing contract in the UK.
I have been offered some short term IT consultancy type work in Germany which I can fit into my existing work.
Nothing has been finalised yet, but the aim currently is to spend a week on-site in Germany in 2-3 months delivering training/consultancy to about 5 people on a database that is used by this company as the backend for their application.
The time spent on site will therefore only be a week, but in order for me to come up with a week's worth of training/advice it will probably take me about a month (at least) to come up with enough content to fill 5 days.
I therefore need any advice on everything from coming up with a formula on how to charge them which includes the time I spend coming up with the training material, how to come up with a contract (I am an IPSE member so I envisage utilising their legal service) and any country specific details/legalities/UK and German tax implications I need to be aware of (e.g. do I need to 'register' in the country in some way, even though I'm only there for a week?)
TIA.
