I am in a similar situation to the OP and was wondering if anyone had recommendations for a professional tax advisor? Many posters have suggested speaking to a professional, but I could not see any recommendations so far. Thanks.

Given that you are dealing with multinational tax law there aren't many people who specialise in such things.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Do you know that guy in your project who is smart, and could learn to do anything, if he wasn't so lazy that he expected relative strangers to make his life easier? Even when you give him advice, he doesn't take it.
Don't be that guy.
DYOR. Read online international country tax check sheets published by the large accountancy firms. Once you are familiar with the tax fundamentals, speak to an accountant in each territory you are thinking of operating in and ask targeted questions concerning your personal circumstances.

Hi Guys,
I'm new to the contracting world and could relate to this thread.
I wanted to know if I intend to work for a UK client through my UK ltd company -- however work remotely from an EU country:
1) Would it be possible for me to invoice the UK client using my UK ltd company AND then invoicing my UK ltd company from my EU ltd company?
Basically I have run into a lot of clients who don't want to be invoiced from an EU country/outside UK - so I wanted to get some sort of workaround if possible.
Kind regards

What, you mean how to lie to clients?"I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

1) your UK company has appropriate UK based insurance
2) your clients (and any agencies providing you with work) know where you are working from for data protection purposes.
The latter is where you will struggle I suspectmerely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

And any decent sized client will be able to tell if you're working from outside the UK, even if you use a UK-based proxy/VPN. If caught doing this, after confirming you were working within the UK, it could be a lot more serious for that you'd perhaps think.Last edited by BlasterBates; 31 January 2022, 16:36.I'm alright JackComment
