Hello all!!
I have done a fair bit of research and read quite a lot of posts similar to what I want to do, but I do not feel I have the information I need, so I will ask here
I live in Scotland with my German wife, we need to move to Germany for personal reasons, I would like to keep my job. I have talked with my company, they are happy with me to work remotely from Germany while still based locally and being paid in the UK as normal, as long they did not have to do anything or get involved.
I called the HMRC and they are setting me up with a call with someone from their technical team next Tuesday, I hope they can help me. I know there is a double taxation agreement between the UK and Germany, I have tried to make sense of all of the documents, but I am not sure I understand everything. In a nutshell I believe that with this agreement I will not have to pay taxes in both countries, just the UK.
Has anyone here moved from the UK to Germany and took advantage of this double taxation agreement?
If so, can you tell me about the process?
I am also to curious to know how it works with taking your money over, I will need to use my salary to live as I do here, I think I would use TransferWise to move my money from my UK bank to my new German bank as they provide great rates as opposed to banks.
If anyone who has experienced this move can shed some light on what it was like and what you had to do, that would be very much appreciated!
Thank you!!
