Hi Experts in EXPAT!
I live and work in the UK. I have just got a job offer from one of the big company to work for them in Belgium. When asked I have told them to match 35000 GBP equivalent salary. They have offered me 44000 euro which is equivalent to around 31000 GBP.
I have searched through internet to look for salary calculator, couldn't find one. My worry is with 44000 euro gross salary how much would be my net take home pay as I heard that the tax rate in Belgium is 50%. And if it is 50% then my net yearly payment would be 22000 euro which will put me in BIG trouble.
I am married with 1 child (1 year old) and they will be staying in UK or if necessary may relocate with me to Belgium.
I understand there are certain elements which I can get exemption like being an expats, 30% rule out, having a baby <1 year etc etc but do not have a clue how to work this things out.
I want to negotiate the salary in a way so that the monthly take home pay is around 2200 to 2500 gbp.
I would really appreciate your help.
Many thanks.
