Don't you need a visa to work remotely for a SV company from Europe?
- bdukic 9y agoOf course not. I'm not sure why would you even think that.
- seekingcharlie 9y agoWhy do you seem so certain of that? I live in Germany, work for an SV company, and a work visa in Germany is absolutely required.
- bitL 9y agoNo, there are multiple options. If you are a contractor is one way, or an own Delaware LLC that is used for invoicing, you just need to hire international tax accountant to be good with both US and your-country-of-tax-residence's tax offices.
- pm90 9y agoVisa's are by definition documents providing authorization for (re)entry and specific kinds of work. If you're not inside the country's geographical boundaries, you are not in their jurisdiction and hence don't need a visa. Now, taxes though... that's a different beast.
- charlesdm 9y agoEasy: you invoice from wherever you're based. Exempt from tax in the US, taxed in your home jurisdiction. Expenses tax deductible.
