Hi everyone,
complicated thing here. I'm an italian citizen working as a freelancer in Italy and i am signed up as a professional to a chamber to sign and pay tax as architect. Lot of times i'm in spain for personal stuff, and i would like to move there keeping my actual italian freelancer status...why? Young freelancer with 5% of taxes + retirement taxes and no VAT for the next 4 years.
The italian tax department this summer spoke about a person living in UK (with residence permit), and working as a freelancer (on the web with almost just italian clients) in italy; the tax department said that that person can do it but, you know... if you pay tax in italy, of couse the italian tax department say it's ok!
So, i read that as European citizen, moving to spain without a job there means some economic requiremnt on the bank account and an health private security (around 400 euro a year). The problem is that i cannot find any info about keeping the freelancer status in italy, living with a spanish residence permit; as said, should be ok for italy, but what about spain tax department? I would not get charge for the difference between the italian taxes and the spanish one, because it wouldn't be affordable at all, at least for the next 4 years.
Any chance to find a solution or an explicit law?
Thank you so much!
