Freggyragh Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Tape your sides up before looking, but her LinkedIn an Twitter profiles are a hoot. You don’t need to come here for Woodyfacts anymore, if Melissa is Woody’s investment guru, why not go straight to the source? Nice poems too.

If you are trusting your posted website, what's your take on the UK being the number 1 tax haven in Europe? Quote Germany taxes its corporate residents on their worldwide income. However, most DTTs exempt income attributable to a foreign permanent establishment (PE). http://taxsummaries.pwc.com/ID/Germany-Corporate-Taxes-on-corporate-income Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freggyragh Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) DTT exemptions are standard with most tax jurisdictions. They are in place to prevent people and companies having to pay tax twice on the same income. The U.K. also has DTTs, including, of course, a reciprocal DTT with Germany.

Quoting corporation tax in isolation does not give an accurate or fair picture of what companies in Germany actually pay. https://europa.eu/youreurope/business/vat-customs/company-tax/germany/index_en.htm Come on, what’s your take on the UK being the number 1 tax haven in Europe?

And, for your benefit I’ll pretend that the EU’s 36 FTAs and all the other favourable trade deals the EU already has don’t exist (the ones that basically cover the whole world, bar Russia and its satellites, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, Libya and Iran). Now, tell me more about these EU export tariffs - ‘getting rid of EU export tariffs’ plays much better with me than ‘offering Putin a way around sanctions’, and it’s just about the last card you’ve got. Please don’t let me find out ‘EU export tariffs’ are something you read on a Russian backed conspiracy site. Link, please. freggys #fakenews about the uk not been a member.......
