Greetings,
What do inside IR35 contracts mean to non UK tax residents? I have been living in Europe for several years and contracted through my own EU limited company (of which I am an employee and therefore pay all NI type taxes in the EU country where live).
Now offered fully remote contract...
From my experience, 1350 is the ok day rate for longer term and 1550 is ok for shorter term assignments. But, as many offices are closed due to Covid19, there is a downward pressure from wfh east Europeans. I am aware of one Poland based ex Deloitte consultant signing up at 850 a day and being...
I've missed out on a nice contact in Zurich due to my British passport. From Jan 1, GB citizens no longer have the same rights in Switzerland as EU citizens and require a work permit. The company was not willing to be a sponsor for freelancer. Residing in EU, 60km across the border, and having...
Hi All,
Anyone has an experience of operating a Baltic state limited company to work on IT contacts in Europe and the UK? If yes, could you please PM me? I am surprised how suspiciously little Google has on this topic.

I planning to buy an apartment in Spain (to rent as a short let holiday accommodation) on 40-50% deposit and financing the rest either locally in Spain or in the UK or in Europe. Could someone recommend a good way to get this sorted? I am getting a decent income but as a freelancer in Germany...
I will be a German tax resident (can’t avoid the 183 days rule) and trying to decide whether to go as a freelancer or register a UG (an equivalent UK limited).
I am inclined to go as a freelancer but concerned with my 2013/14 tax situation. I understand that as a freelancer I will have to...
Does anyone have any experience with these guys? Good or bad? Anything I should know? They seem to be quite big in Germany. PM me if necessary. Thank you.
Just accepted a contract at Adidas headquarters, Herzogenaurach, Germany. Has anyone worked there? Any advice on the local accommodation, etc is very much appreciated.
My LTD company has received a Claim Form from Northampton County Court. There has been a claim made by the solicitors acting on behalf of one of the UK largest credit companies for £7,000 against my company for missing payments for some sort of credit agreement.
I’ve called the Credit company...
I have been working from home for the past 3 years. As I work on international projects, there is a little need for me to be in the UK. As long as there is a fast internet connection and a good mobile phone reception, I am pretty much ok to work from anywhere in the world.
Lately, we’ve been...
Yes, I am aware of this. I am not sure if I will use any other benefits of PCG memebership though. This exercise is purely to cover my company and myself for any HMRC queries.
