Is anyone know if you can keep your company if you would stay longer than 180 days outside of Germany? Or will there be any problems with the main residence or what could happen if you stay longer abroad, like in Thailand with DTV Visa. I'd like to have a German customer with a freelancer company to live and work from Thailand as long as I can. And then repeat
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around maintaining a German company while being outside of Germany for more than 180 days, particularly in Thailand. It appears feasible to keep the company as long as you maintain a correspondence address in Germany. However, considerations include the potential bureaucratic and tax implications of operating a German business versus forming a foreign entity, such as an LLC in the US, to possibly reduce tax burdens. Overall, careful attention to tax obligations and residency regulations is essential for expats working remotely.
