I am looking for advice from those carer's who live overseas & are self employed with Consultus Care.
I live in Portugal & have requested to be self employed. I am registered in Portugal as a resident & at the Finance/Tax office.
On reading the information sheet, it states that i need a UTR. I have a NI number but not lived in the UK for several years. Is this number only needed if I need to declare my earnings in the UK? Obviously, I do not want to pay tax in the UK as I am not living there/claiming anything. I am a tax resident in Portugal.
Also, any info on Public Liability Insurance would be helpful.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Allison
I unfortunately cannot help with the tax question. I believe that one of the agents would be able to assist, details on our web site, or someone on this chat site could answer.
Question 2..I use Mark Bates for Public Liability Insurance which costs me just under £7 per month. This is a personal choice and I am sure if you went online you would be able to get quotes.

I hope this helps

Regards
Anita
