Hi
I'm starting up a company and I will be employing people to work for me. However, I don't want them to work for me directly and would prefer to hire "sole traders".
I would provide them with work and they would invoice me for any work they carried out for me. I would envisage hiring or to be correct, sub contracting a number of national and non nationals (who are members of the EU) so I presume there would be no issue with this same as there wouldn't be with an Irish person??
Is it as simple as this?? I can't imagine it is and there has to be millions of reasons why I can't do this but I really want it to work this way at the beginning as my capital would be quite low and I can't afford to hire/pay someone to do wages/tax for me so I thought this would be an easy way round it by letting them do their tax themselves.
I would only hope to do this for the first six months, pending it being successful of course before I could revert to employing people as PAYE workers.
Can non-nationals, who are members of the EU, such as Pole's etc. apply to become Sole Traders in Ireland??
Anyway, thanks for any help you can provide me with.
