Contracting in Norway

[ITAbroad]

Hi

I recently accepted a 6 month contract in Norway and wondered if anyone could give any advice on who to use as an umbrella company/accountant, or any advice at all in relation to tax.

I have been in contact with one company who have stated they can set me up a UK Ltd company and then register as a foreign branch in Norway and arrange local payroll. I'd then pay social security and tax in Norway, corporation tax in the UK, and receive dividends via the UK.

Does this sound like the best way to go about it? If so, would I only pay UK dividends tax?

Thanks for any help you can offer!

you've accepted a contract offer and you don't even know how you're going to arrange your affairs?
Have you just accepted verbally or signed something?

Sue @ IPAYE will be along soon I'm sure with good advice.
If not then drop them a line http://i-paye.com/#i-paye

Odd state of affairs to accept a contract and not know what the taxation implications are, seen a few posts like that.

How can you agree a rate when you don't know how much you'll be getting taxed ?
