RE: DTA UK/France Article 21 Students
Thank you for the clarification. I'd read elsewhere that 'payments' for the 'purpose of his maintenance' was referring to educational grants for study and didn't actually include employment so this is good to know. -
DTA UK/France Article 21 Students
Having trouble understanding what constitutes 'payments' in the below paragraph from the UK/France Double Tax Agreement. Does 'payments' cover employment income/self-employment income/bank interest from the UK? (Student studying in France.) "A student or business apprentice who immediately before visiting a Contracting State is or was a resident of the other Contracting State and is present in the first-mentioned State solely for the purpose of his education or training shall not be taxed in that first-mentioned State on payments which he receives for the purpose of his maintenance, education or training, provided that such payments are made to him from sources outside that first-mentioned State." -
Working remotely in France as UK self-employed; NI contributions and healthcare cover
Hello, British National, self-employed in the UK (profits above £6,725), planning to study abroad in France for up to 2 years (student visa) whilst continuing my UK self employment remotely (for non-French customers). (I will have a permanent home available to me in both the UK and France during my studies, if relevant.) 1. I believe over 183 days living in France would make me tax resident there but would I still be able to continue to pay NI (Class 2?) contributions in the UK? 2. Would I qualify for a 'certificate of coverage' for healthcare in France for the 2 years during my studies, and thereby exempt me from paying social charges in France? Thank you
