I'm a Hongkong resident and IT freelance, I work for US firm in Hongkong through UK agent, the agent asked me to sign "opt out notification" form, so does it mean I donot have employement relationship with agent and no need
for me to pay 40% UK income tax?
if I sign "opt out notification", actually I will not pay any tax because Hongkong tax authorization will not know I am employeed by overseas client.
But the drawback is agent can terminate contract immediately or not paying any single cent after I work for a month because we are montly settled. am I right?
I don't want to be hired under the client direcly, I want to be freelance
waiting for reply, thanks
