So after working as a perm for 16 years, I have been offered a contract to work for a company in Poland. The contract says that they will take a 20% local withholding tax and I am guessing I will also have to pay VAT for the UK too, which leaves me worried that it wont be worth it? Anyone else worked for an overseas company or have any advice for a newbie!? Are there any companies out there that review contracts or can help with this type of thing? Any help would be massively appreciated as I am very nervous about the whole thing!
