The Global K Group specialises in providing a range of administrative and fiscal support services across all the areas that will concern the freelance professional moving overseas.
We will take responsibility for: -

Tax planning support

Professional Indemnity, Employers and Public Liability Insurance
Making sure you are covered, worldwide, for unexpected eventualities
Personal Financial Planning
Ensuring you receive the best advice on your savings, borrowings and investments, always with direct relevance your personal circumstances.
Immigration and work permit support (in certain jurisdictions)
Application and sponsorship by an appropriately registered body, both for non-EU nationals coming to the EU and for EU nationals moving outside the EU.
Personalised and personal service
A comprehensive picture of your personal circumstances is essential to ensure that all aspects of your affairs are in order prior to your departure. The period that you intend to remain overseas will have a serious influence on any planning we do for you, and any previous periods of overseas work will have to be taken into account.
The Global K administrative support services staff will collect all the necessary information to ensure that you achieve the optimum solution. Our expertise in the overseas contract sector covers all aspects relevant to planning your affairs in the most efficient manner, and moreover, we will put at your disposal our international network of accounting and legal firms, enabling our freelance professionals to obtain local advice on all aspects of taking a position overseas.
It must be borne in mind at all times that every country has different rules and regulations that must be complied with, across all the areas outlined above. Penalties for non-compliance with the regulations are significant, and poor advance planning can prove even more costly than the penalties (for example if you have to give up a lucrative contract because you haven't planned or taken appropriate steps in advance).
So, if you are about to take up an overseas contract, talk to the experts first and contact admin@globalk.net for full support and advice on your own situation.
