    HELP! Working for US, LLC as UK based Contractor

    Hi all,

    I'm going to be doing a contracting job for a US company (an LLC based in Delaware) with no presence in the UK. I am based (tax resident) in UK.

    They have drawn up a contractual agreement and the pay will be above 100k GBP (above 130k USD) in a tax year

    What's the best way to structure this please? my first thought was an umbrella but the US company don't seem amenable as contract is to be governed by US law.

    I'm frankly looking for a straightforward solution, not trying to avoid tax etc. As long as it doesn't get silly where I get double taxed/triple taxes etc.

    I assume if setup a UK limited or sole trader I will then have to invoice VAT? Again something the firm won't pay.
    What about setting up a Delaware LLC and then paying some dividends to me personally in the UK?

    Feels pretty messy, would be grateful for all your help.

    Jonty
