I hate to rain on your party d105 but I do not think that is quite correct. It is my understanding that you are responsible for paying taxes where you are domiciled. As pressman points out the double taxation agreement allows you to layoff tax already paid against your home tax bill. However if you have not paid tax on that element of your earnings it is normally taxable somewhere, unless of course you live somewhere without income tax, thus the attraction of the sandpit.

You may well get away with it for a while. But eventually the taxman is going to catch up with you and may well levy an additional fine. It is hardly a secret who you work for and the taxman has easy access to Ryanair pay scales. I would love to be proved wrong as it would make for more attractive job opportunities for us all. Anybody able to provide conclusive proof that these earnings are effectively tax free?
