That's interesting.  I got my NIE last week in Fuengirola  ( not the little card yet )   I downloaded the form from the ministry  EX14 took it in all filled in correctly,  and a very nice English chap at the desk told me I had the wrong form and where did I get it.  He subsequently gave me EX 16 to fill in, made me an appointment for the next day and hey presto...

All I had to take in was a photocopy of my passport and proof of payment to the bank (  oh yes I forgot that one... I had to pre pay €6.80 in the bank )  ...

What is the difference between EX 14 and EX 16 ??

Thanks Pat ... Yes done Google search, all I can find is that, if you are outside the Uk for more that 183 days, then the uk class you as being a non resident for tax etc.,, and should pay tax in that country.  So i'm looking for the best option.. As i'm not currently on their payroll.

I am seeking Advice on the following ...  I have been asked if I would work  (permanently)  in Spain for a Uk based company. I would be paid from the Uk.

What would be the best status to assume, .An employee (if that were possible within Tax regulations)  or   Self employed (Autonomo) .?
