My rate is 1000 Euro/day. There is flexibility on the rate, if the project is particularly interesting.


Any thoughts or concerns on how to deal with inflationary environment and the falling Euro?


I'm based in Germany, so the tax pressure is quite high, thinking of moving back to Italy (where I'm originally from) to benefit of the massive tax break for "returning Italians" (or anti brain drain tax advantages).


It's not that great, you still have to pay social insurance. It's been a long time since I checked but you end up paying 30-35%.

In Europe your best options are Malta (5% corp tax + progressive rates on what you spend and keep everything in the company until you leave and withdraw at 0% from eg. Dubai) or Cyprus (12 corp tax +2.5% dividends tax).

I'd consider Montenegro as well if it makes sense for you or other eastern European countries.


What do you offer for that rate?


I'm quite a generalist, my strongest expertise is the JVM ecosystem, but these days I'm helping clients to migrate to cloud infra.
