Newbie. Looking for an accountancy service for UK/France complexities
I think you cannot really say before you look into it, but probably not. OP's company is a UK entity that operates in the UK only, so it has nothing to do with French business taxation. This leaves us with just personal income tax that is French. It is ridiculous to assume anyone working in two...- gasca

Or just do your accounts yourself. You will have to invest some time into learning accounting basics in both countries and accept that you may not achieve the same tax efficienty as a pro accountant would. But having done that for my UK company I can tell you it is not nearly as difficult as it...- gasca

Contracting with no home address in the UK feasible ?
I've a rare key skill, but the demand for it is falling and I would rather do something more "run of the mill". I keep hearing of people doing the "3-6 months pop up" thing on regular basis. If it means spending a lot of time looking, lower rates, odd locations - I am happy with all that. The...- gasca

Contracting with no home address in the UK feasible ?
Thanks for the replies everyone. OK, no address is a not a viable opiton. Suppose I do get a proper UK address at the time of getting a new contract. Would a long gap in address history likely be an issue? When I was screened for a bank they asked for "passport with stamps" to cover such gaps...- gasca

Contracting with no home address in the UK feasible ?
After working in the UK for nearly 10 years I am moving out of country for personal reasons. But I would like to come and contract here from time to time for 3-6 months periods.

Termination, please advise
Thanks for the replies everyone, you cleared this up for me quite well. I had a few contracts in the past and left them either voluntarily or after many renewals. So I felt it is something rare and probably fishy. Anyway, I'm moving on. ronkeen, sorry to hear about your experience. Germany is...- gasca

Termination, please advise
Many thanks for the responses. Perhaps I am overthinking it, but I have trouble believing them because it is not a fast-paced environment. It can take a month just to go through the screening, everything in this organisation moves very slowly. There are some indicators that they are being...- gasca

Termination, please advise
I've been in a contract for an investment bank, a 6 month rolling one. Got one extension, then 2 months before the next renewal had a meeting with the team lead and line manager where they announced they are terminating. The reason given is that they'd rather have someone with a testing...- gasca
