Law / Tax in Poland? [57]
Hey tax guru's
I'm considering a job with an American company for $90,500 USD per year in Bydgoszcz. I'd be a contractor for a French Company.
They are telling me that I don't have to pay American Taxes because i will be out of the U.S.A. for more than 330 days of a full year.
They are also telling me I won't have to pay Polish income taxes. Can anyone imagine a way they'd get around me having to pay taxes? I don't quite believe them. However I have worked for this company in the past and they didn't screw me over in the past.
However, they have told me that overtime pay is straight-time, meaning they won't pay 1.5 times my hourly rate for anything over 40 hours, just 1 times my hourly rate. Also, I thought U.E. rules said holiday pay is 2 times your normal hourly rate..
Keep in mind I'd be paid by an American company, who is contracting for a French company, and I'd be working in Bydgoszcz.
many thanks!
any help would be GREATLY appreciated
