IMHO if someone hasn't added his contact information in their profile it would be safe to assume that they don't want to be contacted.


I'm an affiliate marketer. I would recommend that you either partner with an expert, or do the following yourself (that's what I would do if I was hired to monetize you) 1. Germany is a lean poc. You made your point. Move on to the real market- u.s. 2. Hire a cheap designer from fiverr/similar service. 3. Apply to all major related affiliate programs (eg amazon, cj etc) 4. Start making money. 5. Use profits to: 5.1 improve design 5.2 improve conversion 5.3 improve user value using a/b testing with different programs. 5.4 retarget your visitors with all said programs. If you wish to speak to me further about this I'm at aharonovich@gmail Best of luck


IMHO it doesn't matter which is objectively better, which is more efficient. If people would go ahead and use tablets then so should you, or you risk getting out of touch with your users and general society, much like my grandmother who has a hard time getting to the bank since she doesn't get e-banking and physical banks keep shutting down branches.


In Israel, first grade is for 6 year olds, getting out of kindergarten and into elementry school, so if you want grade to age conversion just add 6, ie 10th grade = 16 yo


So first grade is 1 + 6 = 7 by your algorithm?


Interesting!


True. Sadly, that's where I must incorporate.


Yes, Normal corporate tax planning, while maintaining the simplicity of doing business within the EU.


Why did you change your mind about Lisbon?


Great place to live, absolute nightmare for bureaucracy


Just because I read the poster in based in Portugal, and is looking for an alternative.


thanks!


You are welcome !

BTW if you are a Portuguese citizen you can register your company in a easier way, from this page: https://e-estonia.com/component/e-business-register/

Finally if you want to open a company in estonia you will need a physical address, fortunately the government is aware of this hurdle, and in it's website suggest an handful of providers: https://e-residency.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205207022-...

The one with the nicer website is LeapIN, that has very affordable prices...


You need more than a physical address, you need to live in estonia if you don't want to pay extra taxes. This is true for at least Finland, I have consulted tax lawyers about this.


I have explored quite a bit the idea of opening a company in Estonia via e-residency and this particular point of extra taxes never showed up.

I am sure is not something that they would put on the first page, however I am a little surprise.

Do you care to elaborate ?


They are not listed because the extra taxes are not levied by Estonia.

Almost every country in the world taxes their residents' income, even if it arrives from a company abroad. And US (in)famously taxes their citizens' income, even if they do not live in US.

So if you run a company remotely, you still have to check with your local tax rules to see how much tax you may need to pay if this company pays you salary or dividend.


Well of course, but I would pay those tax even if I were working for Google in California or for Ferrari in Italy, at different government, with slightly different rates, but I would still pay...

Those are not "extra" taxes, those are regular taxes on your income...


This was about Finnish tax authority taxing company income as personal income (another possibility) or taxing the company as it would be finnish based on location of your operation/management location, not the basic taxes based on your location. I'll check if I can find some information about this online.

edit: Here is article about it in finnish http://www.yrittajat.fi/fi-FI/uutisarkisto/a/uutisarkisto/vi...

Translation of key point (by me)

– Jos liiketoiminta tapahtuu Suomessa ja omistajat ja päätöksentekijät asuvat Suomessa, myös verotus tapahtuu Suomessa, vaikka yritys olisi perustettu Viroon. Jos yritys harkitsee toimivansa Virossa, pitää aidosti mennä lahden taakse, asua siellä, pitää kiinteää toimipaikkaa ja harjoittaa liiketoimintaa, Akselin sanoo.

"If business operations are conducted in Finland and decision makers live in Finland the taxation also happens in finland even if the company has been founded in Estonia. If company thinks of operating in Estonia, you have to actually go over the sea and live there, have actual business location and operate your business there Akselin states. (this is a guy from finnish Accounting firm)"

(my note: it doesn't have to have all of the above meaning operations and management, it could be one of the above for example just management living in Finland)

(Poor) Google translation of the article

Sorry this took so long, see my other reply.


AFAIK the extra taxes apply to your country of origin, not to Estonia.


Sadly I think that if a company supplied housing for temp employees the media would shout slavery.
