Am I able to use an offshore trust while working overseas?
Offshore taxation issues
In most European countries, trusts are not recognised in the same way as they are in the UK, and you will be taxable and liable for social security deductions on all income paid into the trust by your employer.
For all intents and purposes, in most countries, income put into a trust is treated in the same way as if it were put into a bank account, and will therefore be liable for the same taxes.
