How can I get paid in Jamaica when working remotely for a company in Germany?
It is possible to get paid in Jamaica while working for a company in Germany but it is a complicated process. I will explain the process below, but first, I will explain what a Jamaican bank account is.
Jamaica is a Commonwealth country and is part of the British Commonwealth, so a Jamaican bank account is like a UK bank account. It has a name, address, and a bank account number. It is important to keep in mind that this is not your local bank account, it is a bank account that you have opened in Jamaica. The same applies to the UK bank account. You have a local bank account in the UK, but it is not your main bank account.
When you open a bank account in Jamaica, you will be given a debit card. You will use this debit card to withdraw money from the bank account. When you are working in Jamaica and you withdraw money from your bank account, you will pay a commission to the bank that issued the debit card. This is not tax, this is a commission that is paid to the bank for processing the withdrawal.
This commission is charged by the bank and is paid out of the Jamaican bank account. This means that it is a commission that is paid out of your own Jamaican bank account.
When you are working in Germany and you withdraw money from your German bank account, you will pay a commission to the bank that issued the debit card.
Will I pay taxes in Jamaica or Germany when working remotely in Jamaica?
Taxes can be complicated when working remotely in Jamaica for a corporation in Germany, so we’ve prepared this guide to help you understand what you need to know.
How Much Tax Do I Pay in Jamaica?
The Jamaican government has a flat tax rate of 15% on all income. This means that the tax rate is the same for all income earned in Jamaica, regardless of the source.
What is the Tax Rate in Germany?
The German tax rate is much lower than the Jamaican rate. For 2017, the German tax rate is 22% for the first €80,000 ($91,000) earned by individuals and 38% for the next €80,000 ($91,000) earned by individuals.
The German tax rate is higher than the Jamaican rate because Germany has a progressive tax rate. This means that the tax rate increases as the amount of income increases.
The German tax rate is also higher than the Jamaican rate because Germany has a value added tax (VAT) of 19%.
