Hi I hope this thread is in the right place. I've been working as an IT contractor for the past 10 years. My current situation is that I'm a director of a shelf company that's run by the management company that I use, so I don't have my own company. Some years I've worked 12 months and the last couple of years I've worked less than 12 months with time off in between contracts. The company charge me 150 per month for any month that I invoice, and they just pay me a net amount at the end of the month.
Anyway the above may or may not be relevant. I've been looking at contracts abroad and I'm in with a shout of getting one for 12 months in Switzerland. If I decide to take it what are the tax implications here - I know that if a person works abroad for more than a certain number of days in the year this has an effect on a person's tax, but I have no idea what that is
If anyone has advice or thoughts on the best / most optimal way to work the 12 months abroad then I'd appreciate some feedback.
Cheers
