That sounds like an ideal situation, although as we've recently seen, companies need to be very careful with:
> low tax EU environments
as the EU has shown itself willing to declare these illegal state subsidies retroactively.
- tormeh 11y agoThose were special tax deals for special companies. It's perfectly legal to just set a low tax rate, as long as it's universal.
- gambiting 11y agoThere's already plenty of legislation about this sort of thing, unfortunately. For example you can drive your car from one EU country in any other EU country and your insurer has to cover you bu law(yes yes I know UK insurers only cover you for 60 days or so, which is stupid, but I think that's the UK law letting them do that), but you can't legally buy a car in say France and buy insurance in Germany. Since car insurance can be a lot cheaper in some EU countries than in others, I guess a lot of people would do that(but then again, if a lot of people were in fact doing it, the insurance prices would probably equalize eventually).
