Hi all,
I hope someone can help.
I've just been put forward for a potential contract in Berlin. It seems a good opportunity but, looking into it, I see the situation is not as simple as I may have thought.
From the agent's description, I would be required to work at the client's site for a short while (maybe a month or so), after which the majority of the work will be remote.
For UK contracts, I work through my own Ltd. It appears this may not be possible for this contract though. So, my questions to you all are:
- How would I be best dealing with this? I have seen posts indicating I would need to use an umbrella with a German license. Would I have to continue to do so when working remotely?
- What are the tax and other financial implications? I have never earned money outside the UK before, and have only a very small amount of knownledge of the German tax system.
- Do any of you have any personal experience of a similar contract?
- What is it like working in Germany? I have spent a lot of time on holiday there, but I know that work is a different story.
Thanks everyone in advance
