I never worked on TypeScript in production and I don’t know German at all, but I had a contract with German company, so I can add my two cents and show how it looked like in my case … :two: :moneybag:

On the advice of my accountant I have created a simple SRL (equivalent to LLC in UK) company in Romania. Our companies signed one document called consulting agreement. At the end of every month I was sending on some email address an invoice with:

  1. single position Elixir/OTP and Phoenix consultancy services - Month Year
  2. price as salary
  3. quantity as hours
  4. and … 0% TVA (Romanian VAT).

Note: In Romania you do not need to pay TVA below ~88.5k EUR yearly. :+1:

Note: The accountant sends you 3 templates for invoices (within EU below TVA limit, within EU above TVA limit and outside EU if remember correctly), so you do not even need to worry if a random invoice template you found is good or not. :smiling_face:

Obviously I have no idea how it looked like inside their company, but I guess that they simply count my services as company spending just like in B2B-like contracts. :page_with_curl:

As owner of SRL company I was responsible to … kindly listen my accountant. :smiley:

They did all the paper work and I only need to:

  1. send to my accountant email with documents for accounting (monthly)
  2. pay 3% (1% if you have at least one employee) income tax (quarterly)
  3. optionally sign a declaration of withdraw and pay 8% (previously 5%) withdraw tax.
  4. sign fiscal declarations 205 and 207 in my case

Note: Documents for accounting are:

  1. Invoices your company issued
  2. Statement for all company bank accounts
  3. Invoices you have received
  4. Optionally employee spending (if any)
  5. Other information about company spending like renting an office, office costs, energy bills etc.

Meanwhile there were some smaller, less important changes, but those are details to consult with an accountant and may be different for each use case. If anyone have some question here is a link to the page of accounting service I use: https://adviceaccounting.ro :link:

Hope it helped! :rocket:
