overview for nun

I am looking to register a company in the EU to carry out business activities there. I am not currently a tax resident or citizen of an EU country, although I hold Greek permanent residency. I am a freelance in the creative industries and will be the sole shareholder and paying myself through dividends not a salary and paying taxes in my current country.

Greece is as far as I understand a bureaucratic nightmare. I am looking at Estonia’s ‘e-residency’ program although there doesn’t really seem to he honest opinions of it online as well as Cyprus due to almost no taxes on IP which would benefit me.

Important factors are ease of dealing with bureaucracy, less registration and accounting fees and ability to open a Euro-denominated bank account. Less taxes are also obviously positive but that’s not a main concern.

Hello,

Sorry in advance if this is the wrong community to ask in, new here (and if so please direct me to the correct one)

I may be new here, but why is c/Europe all about Israel in c/europe@feddit.org

My top looks different, but these all do in fact seem to be posts about Europe. It’s a major conflict that is getting a lot of media attention and European countries have finally started losing patience with Israel’s actions.

Being shot at by an occupying army does seem quite inconvenient

How do I politely turn down a teenage girl? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Why do you need to be polite? If you’re direct or even rude you’re doing her a favour because it might turn her away from approaching other adults who would actually take advantage of her

France 'determined' to recognise Palestinian state: foreign minister in c/europe@feddit.org

The world’s newest country (South Sudan) was recognised by France and many others on the day it declared independence. Unless there is a specific legal formality only affecting immediate recognition of Palestine it just sounds like stalling. I’m sure the Palestinian Authority will forgive the delay in updating websites, you know how developers are.

Usually much easier if one person takes the lead yes. If you’re lucky it is obvious from the start who is better qualified or even interested in doing so.
