Online Sales..offshore or pay taxes etc?

[tonybkt]

HI, I am based in the EU and run several websites online selling IPTV and take around 15-20k a month through PayPal.

I originally thought I needed a bank account in a country like Cyprus with nominee and debit cards etc but really aren't sure

Would I be better paying taxes and going self employed in my own country?and declaring as VPS services etc like others do?


Is there any other solutions? I am willing to travel etc to open accounts or listen to any ideas as totally lost with this as it has grown faster than i thought

Thanks!

Why would that‍ be wrong?

He may think that paying‌ 30+% effective taxes (which is typical in EU - don't know about his country) is‍ ridiculous and unfair? Sounds like a solid reason for me...

I guess you are already paying taxes on the money earned via paypal?

Paypal is‌ a licensed bank in Luxembourg, they should have already reported your account to your tax‍ authorities.

If you want to change your tax situation then move to a tax free⁠ or territorial tax country.

HI, at the minute no taxes are been paid as it grew from a hobby‌ type thing to a business very fast and tbh I dont know where to start.‍

I agree to this, you may‍ consider a relocation to a low tax country.

What is your nationality and fiscal residence?
Where are your customers located? E.g. EU/Asia/USA/etc.
Are you able to travel for company setup and bank account opening?
