    There’s nothing to worry about. The client just wants to save money. You’re within your right to refuse and make your own arrangements but they probably won’t let you recharge the cost if you go down that route.

    It’s a commercial decision, nothing to do with control.

        My client has to pay for a hotel and flights if they want me onsite. I do not bother how it could be considered by any as that was a commercial offer from my side I am happy with. As a result that gradually built up remote work.

        It is normal for them to do the same for their partners/visitors from other countries as a welcome gesture so if a taxman would consider that a employment factor then I will think them incompetent.
        Even if it could be such then I believe among many others on big picture.

            Once you have signed up, just let them know your membership number when you check in, and then start chasing the points.
