Frequently Asked Questions for Contractors

How long does it take to get set up as a contractor?

We can get you set up the same day. Once we’ve advised you, we’ll send secure documents for your signature and submit everything on your behalf. We’ll guide you through each step so you’re ready for the next payroll cycle if needed.

Do I need a tax or social insurance number?

Yes, we can apply for tax numbers in Ireland and will advise you on how to obtain them in other countries.

How do I submit my expenses?

You can log expenses easily through our secure online portal or mobile app. We’ll provide full training and give you access to a video knowledge base so you always have support at hand.

Can I claim expenses for training I’ve already paid for?

Yes, in many cases. Training courses like type ratings, line training, and accommodation during training can be claimed against your tax (ATPL courses are excluded). We’ll guide you on exactly which expenses you can claim.
