Dear all,
I have been offered a contracting position in Zurich, I am an IT contractor with a LTD company that is not in existence just for my contract but provides employment for other engineers.
I understand that if I take this position in Zurich I will have to become an employee of the agency who introduced me, pay them a % fee which includes Swiss TAX ect and their "management" fee. My earnings would get paid to a Swiss bank account.
The question is when I transfer funds from the Swiss bank account to my UK Personal account what UK TAX liabilities am I exposing myself to. Obviously I would not transfer to my business account as I would not be working through my business.
I need to work out if the extra amount I could earn in Zurich would be swallowed up in Swiss and UK TAX and exchange rates!
Many thanks
James
