    I'm in business to make a profit. If the costs of taking on a contract outweigh any acceptable profit margin then fook that.
    How are your short USD trades doing?

      I think bread is about all they'll be able to afford soon.

          I haven't worked in EU for a while but if I remember rightly my first gig I negotiated to be paid in Sterling and worked through my UK Ltd paying tax in the UK. There was a six month grace period before I had to put my head above the parapet with the local tax authorities but got around that with a stint in another EU country before going back to the original gig.

          In summary, I don't remember the need for foreign accountancy services and just carried on as normal as I would in the UK. Agencies at that time were much better than now so flights and accommodation for interview and heading over for the gig were paid by them. I had an open biz class return ticket - start and end of gig, if I wanted to come home for weekends that was my shout and rightly so.

          Rates were good in those days so no question about heading over, best coupla years contracting ever as the ClientCo's were great to work for.

              Try asking darmstadt, or Chef, or blasterbates, or Sysman for a bit of advice.

                    Please lay off Suity, at least he is trying. With 5 kids its not easy to go and contract with Germans but he knows his responsibilities and is doing his best.

                    Take it easy Suity, it will work out soon.
