I have been contracting for 15 years, and previously used a Ltd company until I moved to Europe 2 years ago. I then paid local taxes on my entire earnings.
I am now based 60% in UK, 40% in Europe, but paid mainly in euros. I already have a euros trade account, (which is the best business decision I have ever made by the way), but need to set up a euros business account if I go down the Ltd company route. I am not interested in EBT, or loan schemes, or IOM tax avoidance. Instead, I am seeking some serious advice from experienced contractors about the best way to operate currently.
Should I set up a Ltd co / operate through an umbrella (which one) / or do something entirely different? I have extensive expenses as I fly every week and spend approx 100 nights in hotels. My IR35 status is currently being evaluated so I would like to know the options based on both scenarios.
Any advice would be very gratefully received. Thanks.
