Net Jets Contract

Hello everyone. I heard yesterday that there might be some irregularities with the new contract. Suposedly, the 25% tax in Portugal is not tax, but some sort of social contribution for self employed personnel. What I heard is that NTA hires us through Net Jets England as if we were contract pilots. We then pay 25% social contribution in Portugal. It is not very clear yet (like most things in this company) but the rumour is that we will not have a Portuguese fiscal identification number. This might mean that the tax autorities in other countries might not accept this 25% payment as taxes ( unless it is clearly expressed on paper by the portuguese tax authorities and showing a personal fiscal number) and that people could be hit with a full tax bill at home.
Anyone else heard anything about it?
