I am a Canadian HR Consultant considering a contract with a company working out of Liberia. Initially the contract will be for about 3 months with at least some of that time working directly in Liberia.
I've been told that any work done in Liberia will be taxed there. Canada does not have a tax treaty protecting me from double taxation (actually I read that one has been signed but isn't being used. Can anyone confirm that I will need to pay Liberian taxes? And if so, how I protect myself from double taxation? Thanks very much

Hi there, I am looking for some advice. I am an Australian who lives in the U.K. Without getting to much into detail about the tax situation, what I would like to know is can I start a pay day loans business in Guernsey and lend to people in the U.K? This would prove beneficial in the long run for me to operate my company outside the U.K. I appreciate that I would be generating business in the U.K but as it would solely be based online does that mean that the company would get taxed at the Guernsey rates. Conversely, could I just lend my other company in the U.K money at a high rate so it only breaks even and therefore it would be the Guernsey company that makes the profit. Any help or pointing in the right direction would be helpful. Regards, Neil Spence Neil Spence
