All the risks associated with remote work abroad and business travel?

Here’s what could happen if you don’t prevent this:
Corporate tax at 20% to 35% over attributable profit
Administrative obligations exceeding € 50,000
Penalties for not registering and/or filing (timely)
Interest for late remittance of corporate tax
Employer brand damage and other non-financial damage
