It's definitely not as simple as that. To get an idea of some complexities, just read the double taxation avoidance treaties between the two EU countries involved to start, and have a look at the EU posted workers directive http://ec.europa.eu/social/main.jsp?catId=471 . Those should convince you that you need good fiscal advice and a somewhat conservative attitude when it comes to fiscal grey areas. If you want to avoid paying a lot of taxes, build a multinational and set up tax avoidance schemes like the Double Irish with a Dutch sandwich. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Irish_arrangement . But hurry, because some of this might actually become a bit more difficult starting from next year... |

It's probably cheaper to simply pay Irish corp. tax (12.5%) for all but the biggest companies. You have to setup 2 Irish companies, a Dutch company and a Caribbean-based company, a battalion of tax lawyers and advisers to exploit the loophole legally....etc
