I'm thinking of asking my current employer in Canada (in software tech) to give me the option to work remotely for a while, and chances are they'll say yes. (currently I'm on a work permit in Canada)
I wonder what things I need to consider when doing this in terms of economics, legal matters, taxes, insurance, etc. More specifically:
1- I'll be staying my Canadian taxes in full. Is there some sort of German income tax that I would need to pay as well? If yes, how much.
2- I'm not a Canadian citizen and normally I can stay max 90 days in a 6 month period in Berlin. What are my options to stay longer and would those affect my taxes situation?
3- How about insurance, would I need to pay separately for my insurance in Germany? Would I need to have that considering the extended health coverage that my current employer offers? (although not sure how it would work for a long stay abroad)
4- Any other obvious thing I should be mindful of in terms of economics, legality, etc. ?
