    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    So do I still charge the Irish agency 20% VAT?

    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    Well the Irish agency says it is happy to deal with a UK Ltd with payments made using a TransferWise Borderless account. I invoice via their online portal.

    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    Yes I'm looking at the Icon website now and its seems a good option. I'm also looking at Transferwise Borderless Account to receive funds. My only worry is around who I pay tax to. Icon's website say they take care of Irish tax for me, but as the work is physically being done from my front...

    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    Thank you all. Just had a call from the agent. This is the first overseas contract they have arranged. They have partnered with an Irish agency who I will be invoicing and submitting my timesheets to. Should the Irish account be set up in my UK Ltds name? In a few months when the dust...

    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    Thanks for all the advice. Interestingly I just received an email from the UK agency. I really think they are the ones stipulating the six months and not the client. They now say as I will be paid in Euros I need an Irish bank account which they will pay into. "As the work you will be carrying...

    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    The agent is UK based while the client is in Dublin. Which does make we wonder if it is the agent requiring that I move to an Irish Ltd. Surely as I work in the UK and have a contract with a UK agency who themselves have the contact with Dublin, it shouldn't be an issue for me.

    Remote contract for Irish (RoI) client

    Hello In a week or so I'll be starting a new contract with an Irish client based in Dublin. As the contract is for remote work I will remain based in the UK working from home. According to the UK based agent, they are happy that I use my UK Ltd but after six months require I work through a...

    Bye bye NHS

    I wouldn't exactly say circa £250 per day give or take fifty quid well paid given expenses no longer allowed to be put through the books. That's about the average for NHS contracting (outside London).

    Bye bye NHS

    Passionate Europhile here and after 20 years with the NHS (10 years contracting) it's royally fooocked! Just wait until the US trade talks begin. They'll be all over it.

    Bye bye NHS

    The contract is for a remote worker.

    Bye bye NHS

    A few things. One is the £200 per week out of pocket business expenses I use to put through my company. The trust I worked for wanted me to work through an umbrella who would only count site to site travel expenses which didn't apply to me. I tried to negotiate an increase to the day rate but...

    Bye bye NHS

    This Friday I'm finally out of public sector contracting. I've spent 10 good years contracting with the NHS but these last few months since April have been terrible. So I'm off! After two weeks in the sun and a week pottering round the house, I'll be starting a new contract as a remote...

    Working through the regulations

    I charge £400 a day and it recommends a £102 increase to be equivalent to outside but it depends on various factors which you can change.

    Outside to Inside IR35 - Same Client, Different Agent, Different Contract

    I don't think so. I do work without supervision as no one has the skills, I can choose within reason where I work on a daily basis and to some degree the hours I work, I set my own schedule with some input from the client (ie when they need the work completed by) and I provide my own specialist...

    Outside to Inside IR35 - Same Client, Different Agent, Different Contract

    I'd have to move to an brolley if inside, but then they haven't seen my day rate yet. Still confident I will be outside. Plus its a mission critical role and I'm the only one with the skills (R programming and data science) on site.
