No it is not. A legal entity in Germany cannot offer a contract to someone in Poland. As a german entity you need to create a legal entity in Poland and offer a polish contract. What synergy do you see? Because I see none.

  And lose all the "european benefits"? I could work b2b from anywhere in the world at that point.

    Which european benefits? Everything is local. As a greek i would lose 44% of my income annually, and have mediocre greek insurance and hospitals. What’s the benefit of this? I will sign b2b contracts with eu or us companies as long as i can.

  Sure, but that’s not employment anymore. Because you are self-employed, you are missing out on a bunch of perks. Like… notice period? What notice period?

    you can create ltd and employ yourself if you want to. I have a notice period in my short term contract.
    - rad_gruchalski 4y ago
      Yes, you can. But now it costs you a lot of money. Also, as someone hiring a contractor, I don’t care what arrangements you have in your own limited company. If I don’t like you, you’re out. Hopefully you have more clients.

        at least in the uk running things through limited companies cost less money, not more. Again some contracts have notice periods - this goes for both sides. But yeah you dont get much protection so there is that disadvantage. I would say the biggest downside is that you dont get paid holiday (but you can simply add this to your rate) and it is harder to get mortgage.

        You have a tax return to file as a private person, and as a company. I had a limited company in the UK. No idea if the dividend tax is as low as it used to be. If it is, and you can go on through the fiscal year without claiming a salary, it sure will be cheaper. Assuming that there’s still no upper dividend limit.

        you can also employ yourself and pay yourself as min salary.. that way you get some additional tax deductions..
