I have a contract agreed directly with a client in the Netherland working through my UK limited company. Now I'm seeking advice on IR35. There was an acquisition of this NL company in 2019 and the company that made the acquisition does have a presence in the UK. Therefore, does this make the client responsible for the IR35 declaration. Or can these two companies be treated as separate entities in the eyes of HMRC?
The NL company to which the contract is agreed with has come back to say it doesn't have any UK presence so it cannot seek an SDS. The UK presence is of the company that acquired them back in 2019, but they have no real dealings with this company.
Do I just need to play it safe and go inside IR35?
