Serbian lawyer / tax advisor — review independent contractor agreement

Overview: We're an Irish company that engages a remote customer-support contractor based in Serbia. We have a draft independent contractor services agreement and need an experienced Serbian lawyer (or lawyer + tax advisor) to review it and make sure it is a genuine independent-contractor arrangement that minimises misclassification risk under Serbia's independence test. What we need you to do: Review our draft services agreement and assess it against the nine-criterion independence test, flagging which criteria are at risk and how to stay clear of re-classification. Advise on the best structure for the contractor (freelancer self-taxation regime vs. flat-rate paušal vs. one-person d.o.o.), and the tax/social-security implications of each. Recommend wording changes that strengthen genuine independence (own hours/equipment/premises, no exclusivity, business risk, substitution). Advise on governing law and any Serbia-specific requirements for a foreign client engaging a Serbian contractor. Return a marked-up contract plus a short memo of the key risks and your recommendations. Requirements: Qualified Serbian lawyer or tax advisor with real experience in contractor/freelancer arrangements and the independence test. Experience advising foreign companies engaging Serbian contractors is ideal. Professional written English. Deliverables: reviewed/marked-up agreement + short risk-and-recommendations memo. One contract now, with the possibility of ongoing work as we formalise our small remote team.
