Do I set up Company in Poland or UK (to invoice my schools and students)? [11]
Isn't self employed in Poland the best way to go? It's a flat 19% tax rate on earnings
I think in Dazza's case self employed in Poland is probably the best as inkrakow says. The 19% flat rate scheme is one of a number of tax schemes you can choose (also there is zasady ogólne, karta podatkowa and ryczałt).
Which would be the better way to go in England or Poland?
I have a UK company and wanted to continue to run that and pay myself from it. The problem is that now I am classed as resident in Poland for tax purposes. That means I have to pay my tax and social insurance here. I was planning to register my UK company as an employer at ZUS so I could pay Polish social insurance but it was such a hassle I have simply opened up a Polish self-employed company instead.
I think that it would be better to just keep everything simple and in Poland. It's very simple to set up a Polish self-employed company.
I'm not sure but I think foreign businesses in Poland don't have to pay tax for the first 5 years
Are you referring to profits made by a Polish registered overseas branch of a foreign company? Are you talking about corporation tax or employer's social insurance contributions? Because I have a UK company and so it pays UK corporation tax. I am going to guess that if there are tax breaks they are on profits made by Polish overseas branches. I would guess there are tax breaks for the big boys who come to Poland and set up factories, create lots of jobs etc..
i need to start 2 get the ball rolling very quickly whichever way i go
I just started a Polish self-employed company this week so if you want some help just PM me.
Good luck
