A question about Freelance from Portugal

Hi,

I'm a freelancer from Portugal. Recently an Irish company contacted me for 1 month, so I'll be working in Ireland for 1 month.

Should I pay on Irish tax system or Portuguese one? As I live in Portugal.

I really appreciate if someone can help me.

Tks
 
Hi There,

We're not being unfriendly, but I doubt any of us will have experience of this. Having said that, I would expect that if you are just invoicing the company and not joining them as an employee it would be normal EU rules - you pay taxes in your own country unless you are on site for more than 90 days in one year.

The best thing would be to seek legal advice from a tax professional in your own country to start with.
 
Tks Jim, I know you are not being unfriendly :), I'm just a bit stressed because I'm going tomorrow.

Anyway, that was helpfull, I think it works like you said. Someone there told me that because I'll be using theyre room and computers I had to pay taxes there, but I think that's nonsence. I've asked already to a tax professional here in Port. But I'm still waiting for his reply. When I know something I'll post it here, maybe it will help someone.

Tks
 
No as far as I know within the EU you are good for the first 90 days in any one year.
