I have an opportunity to move to Ireland and work from home working for a UK company. The UK company has no offices or businesses in Ireland so no ability to pay from here.
How might this work? I assume I would need to pay Irish taxes but UK company would have no way to withhold them I assume. Do I need to pay any UK taxes? Also can they pay me in sterling and not withhold anything and I just take care of the taxes myself in Ireland.
I assume this is a common situation and I googled a bit but not finding anything.
One option would be for me to quit and work as a private contractor and just invoice them monthly.
What other options might I have?
Thanks for your help.
Sorry for butting in on your thread..
I've got a similar issue with an added twist. Im irish just about to start contracting work for a UK company but living in New zealand. Im not sure whether i should set up a company in New zealand, UK or set up an irish company to invoice from. Any thoughts? Im on a 1 year working holiday visa in nz so im not sure if im even allowed to set up a company here in new zealand.
It is relatively simple to sort out.
If your wife is an employee of this UK company then my advice is correct - the Revenue, your Irish tax advice and your UK tax advice are incorrect. I understand the issues alright and have dealt with them many times before. How can your wife be self employed if she is an employee of this UK company?
There is nothing to interpret in the words "duties outside the State". If you are physically in Ireland, performing work duties, then those duties are Irish work duties. Simple. I don't need to call Revenue.I know I am correct.
