An opportunity has arisen for me to work remotely full time for an Irish company as a contractor (I am Irish with an Irish registered company already set up).
I was thinking about relocating to another EU country while working this contract as it might be a good opportunity to do some travelling at the same time. However, I am concerned about what the legalities of this are (in particular around tax liabilities). Is it OK to relocate and work somewhere else within the EU temporarily (I would most likely be renting accommodation there for 3 to 6 months) and is it possible to pay the tax in Ireland or would there be a requirement to pay tax in the host country as well/instead of, regardless if it is advantageous to do so or not?
On a related note, would there be as many or more implications for a similar scenario if i was able to arrange this as a PAYE employee instead of a contractor?
