Remilly Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I am a semi retired builder living in England but with a French home in Normandy of many years standing.I have often thought how nice it would be to come across to France and work for a month or two every now and then. Does anyone know if the new system allows for someone whose "principle" residence is still in England (but owns a French home) to work in France and pay the required taxes?

Nick Trollope Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 To qualify for an AE, you must be French resident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remilly Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 Thanks Nick, when I heard about the changes I thought it can't be that simple, its French!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 It's even simpler. Under EU law there is no reason why you cannot carry out short-term work in another EU nation while continuing to pay tax and NI in your home state. You need an E101 form.But as it's France, the need in some businesses (particularly building-related) to get French insurances, which are only available to French residents, cancels this out. Incidentally, even as an autoentrepreneur you still (legally) need these insurances plus French-recognised qualifications and/or proof of experience elsewhere.
