    Luxembourg

    Hi Folks!

    Just secured a long term contract in Luxembourg, and would like to know what is the best (legal) way or maximising my retained earnings.

    I have read the overseas guide, but it is a bit vague as well as 5 years old, and I've DAFS, but still not sure what is the best route ?

    Has anyone used the umbrella companies that operate schemes in Luxembourg ? Which ones do I need to avoid ?

    Cheers

    I know of a few that deal with other European countries. Don't know if Luxembourg is any different.

    www.pearl-systems.com

    www.sybersolve.com

    www.gamutfinancial.ch (based in Switzerland so may have more experience of Luxembourg)

    www.cpmgroup.co.uk


    Hope that helps

      Thanks for the info.

      I saw the thread on ITECS and have contacted a couple of recommendations on that thread, namely Pearl Systems and KeyWest.

      They both seem pretty good and have a handle on the local situation.

      I will check out your other companies you list.

        Try ITECS and connexions. These are two commonly used in Luxembourg.
        I'm alright Jack

          I am based out in Lux at the moment. I am not contracting though. I was told that the Luxembourg government allow you pay half your salary into an off-shore bank account and avoid any taxes.

          If you need any other, general advice on Luxembourg and finding someplace to stay etc then don't hesitate to ask.

            I have heard of connexion but their website (www.connexion.lu) seems to have disapeared.

            As for ITECS I have read too many unfavourable comments about them to feel comfortable.

              Thanks for the offer that would be really helpful.

              I can't contact you since I only registered recently. Can you email me at [removed] ?

              Cheers

                What you want is a company in Luxembourg, and be careful of schemes, I've noticed that the lacadaisical approach to tax that used to exist has become somewhat more efficient.
                I'm alright Jack
