Working from home… advice needed

2012-01-30T14:59:26Z

Hi all, this is my first post here and my apologies if I should have posted a proper introduction before diving in with the serious questions. Hopefully in the next few months I’ll be moving to Spain with my family but at the moment I am really investigating my options.

I am British but have been working full time in Switzerland for over 2 years. Restructuring planned for the company I work for will enable me to perform my software development job remotely from anywhere with a reasonable internet connection and as my wife has family in Spain, this would seem to be a very appealing option.

Whilst I have a load of questions about relocating to Spain, my main concern is that the company I work for currently only has British and Swiss branches and I do not want to fall foul of any legalities regarding living in Spain whilst working for a non-Spanish company.

Assuming that the company I work for wouldn’t be willing to set up a Spanish branch just to handle paying me, my guess is that the simplest solution would be to set myself up as a sole trader and invoice my current employer. However, I would be most interested to know what other alternatives may be available, whether anyone else has experienced this kind of working arrangement and any resources online or books that may be of use.

Seeking people that want to create a minibus transfers company

2012-01-13T08:54:25Z

Hi everyone

I’m really interested in starting a business to do airport transfers, golf transfers etc with a minibus. One of the requirements needed to obtain the Tarjeta de Transporte (VD) and SP plates is the requirement that the transportista has a fleet of a minimum of 5 busus. That is beyond me!
However, I am thinking that there may be other out there in my situation; and if so then why not form an SL together to obtain the Tarjeta?

My question is, can anyone advise the best way to seek out these like minded folk?

Many thanks in advance.

I want to do business but will not be resident in Spain. Advice ?

2012-01-07T21:35:10Z

We are planning to be in Spain 13 weeks of the year in 2012 and although this may increase we will never move totally to Spain ( Scotland still has appeal despite the weather).

I am looking to do business in Spain, mainly with expats but possibly with locals as well as my product may appeal to either.

Any advice on tax, collecting payment in £ or €, legal need to register my intent to trade, partnering with expat or spanish company would be most welcome.

I have a successful yet small telecom business in Scotland but have recently introduced a broadband service for which I have a license to supplybin Spain as well.

Appreciate honest advice, whether positive or negative as long as it is genuine.

Many Thanks in anticipation.

How do I know a busines is legal or not

2011-07-17T10:33:27Z

Hello,
In the area I live there are a lot of ´businesses´doing all kind of things. I only want to do business with legal companies but how can I find out if a company is registered or not? I tried to go to the Spanish Chamber of Comerce but that was a bit complicated for me. maybe anyone knows an easy way to find out which businesses are legal and which are not. And I know I can ask the company for their papers but I don´t want to do that.
Many thanks, Isabel
