true. but it's 1300 + 1800 for the catalogue which totals 3100. which is a lot more but for freelancing quite low.
i just don't understand it. so you're hired by an agency as an employee and they pay you 1300 net monthly but you're going to freelance in that same agency as well? very weird construction. please elaborate.
on another note. you need an arbeitserlaubnis (working permit) especially since you're non-eu *and* if we're talking about a regular job here, that agency needs to put the job opening at the arbeitsamt (labour office) first. only if they cannot find a proper employee from the eu they are allowed to hire someone from outside the eu. only then. thing is, that's not the big deal, they can always say for some reason that the person doesn't qualify. but still it's a whole paperwork to go through.
failing by doing so, as well as not having a working permit can lead to very high fines. for both you and that agency.
