In our our series of annual factsheets for Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Italy, we present the financial picture of a typical benefits package in each of these countries. The factsheets contain a wealth of information on labour costs, regulations, insurances and statutory obligations in the countries mentioned.

In some situations, it may be useful to receive the factsheets in other languages, for example, because you have a colleague or an employee who does not speak English. You can also request the English, German & French factsheets at the bottom of our website page Practical country information

| Salary split, a great way to save tax? |
| Many people talk about a salary split when talking about wage costs optimisation: the best way to gain a tax advantage when you have or do “something” abroad. “Setting up” a salary split may indeed be interesting and may even result in a net advantage, but this is not always the case. Moreover, in practice this entails some arrangements and quite a lot of paperwork, in several countries. It is therefore important to balance the costs against the advantage to be gained. |

| What is the 183 day rule? |
| Another term that must sound familiar to everyone who has temporarily worked abroad or who has posted employees abroad. But what is the purport of this rule? And why does it in practice so often lead to misunderstandings? |

| Hiring an employee abroad, sounds easy, doesn’t it? |
| Yet there is more to it than meets the eye. In our video "Welcome to our world of cross-border work", which we recorded last year, two of our Belgian clients share their experiences of hiring and remunerating staff abroad. Also, our colleague, Birgit Killens, explains why we at Interfisc consider the pay slip to be at the core of a gear system with sprockets that revolve around it. Curious? |
