    How much to charge as a new freelance airport transfer guide?

    I would still say try to check with someone else doing meet and greet at the airport. It may also be that tariffs vary according to the number of passengers you have to meet for each transfer.

    How much to charge as a new freelance airport transfer guide?

    Think about costs and quite a few variables: which airports or just one airport? How long and how much will it cost you to get there (public transport or do you need to leave your own transport near the airport)? How many meet and greets could you do in one day or will they just be Saturdays and...

    Is a Landline Number Still Important?

    Hi. I live outside the Uk and like many others have free calls to landlines so I actually use landline businesses a lot (not everyone gives you a WhatsApp number). Without the landline a few local florists, patisseries and wine shops in the UK wouldn’t have got my business.

    UK Invoicing but EU resident

What I realise now - thanks to your replies too - is that what I want to do is carry on invoicing companies in Italy who want my services, and then separately invoice and pay tax on a company or individual who pays me in sterling in the UK. I am pretty sure I cannot do...

    UK Invoicing but EU resident

    Thanks for replying G, well in Italy to invoice private individuals you have to have a VAT number which is quite expensive. At the moment I send the UK people a note and they pay me in the UK but I would like to do it correctly, especially if I start getting more UK customers. I am thinking of...

    UK Invoicing but EU resident

    I am trying to find out if I can invoice in the UK (no VAT as under threshold) although I am an EU resident. I do not want a VAT number in Italy but need to invoice private individuals and two or three UK companies, I hope. I would want to pay the tax involved in the UK. Advice and suggestions...
