I already read it. Moreover after study this thread I don't really what to do.

Basically I'm looking for 100% sure legal solution without any controversial and "dirty tax optimization". Only legal solution
cope for me. I'm familiar that with this scenario my daily net rate
don't look so optimistic. Just I would like to know how it will look.
As I say the income is something like 100-110 k (annual). Could
anyone suggest what to do.

TIA, Dr_Plamix

Extremely high sales tax in Belgium

Hi Folks,

I consider a contract position based in Belgium. The income is baisically ~100k euro per annum.

I need a couple of tips from freelancers that has experience with Belgium Tax System. Thanks in advance:

1. What net income I can suspect ?
2. I would like to establish my own Limited company. If I will spent more that > 185 days per year in Belgium, probably I do not have a chance to pay tax outside the Belgium?

regards, Dr Plamix.
