Hello everyone,

I may shortly be working for a company which is based in Denmark (Esbjerg), I haven't accepted the offer yet.

I will travel across and work for 2 weeks Offshore, then fly back to UK and enjoy 3 weeks at home with family (2 on 3 off Rota)

I already have a DK Tax Card with SKAT, a CPR Number and a Danske Account (which I log in using my Nem ID)

My question is, will I be paying the Full 55% Tax. or around 44%, I have also been told it could even be 35.6% due to the HydroCarbon tax relief for Expats (agreement with UK and DK)

Can anyone please help me, as this will be a deal breaker for me if it's the high amount

Thanks

Hi,

I take that the HR will be able to answer you that question. If not, do contact SKAT.

I would try the chat to see if you can get some information there: https://skat.dk/data.aspx?oid=2349323

If not, you'll have the contact information here:
