About We Are Micro
Practical, source-led cross-border business education for microbusinesses, freelancers and digital nomads.
For businesses too small for a legal department—and too international for one-country assumptions.
We Are Micro is an educational resource for freelancers, one-person companies, small remote teams and digital nomads. The goal is simple: turn cross-border business questions into decision frameworks that a small operator can actually use.
Most company-formation content starts with a jurisdiction and works backwards. We start with the business problem. Do you need liability separation? Better payment access? An EU company identity? A structure clients will contract with? A regional base? Or are you simply trying to reduce administration while moving countries?
What we cover
Our guides focus on company setup, owner and company tax concepts, permanent establishment, VAT and sales tax, banking, payments, bookkeeping and the operating consequences of founder mobility. We deliberately avoid presenting a foreign entity as a shortcut to a guaranteed tax result.
Who this is for
- Freelancers considering whether to stay self-employed or incorporate.
- Microbusiness owners selling services, software or digital products internationally.
- Remote founders comparing Estonia, the UK, US, Ireland, Singapore or the UAE.
- Digital nomads who already own a company and need to understand what a move can change.
What this site is not
We Are Micro is not a law firm, accounting practice, tax adviser, immigration adviser, bank or company-formation provider. We do not know your personal facts. Use the site to ask better questions, identify the rules that need checking and prepare for professional advice where the stakes justify it.
