Self-employment – Where do you start?<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are a resident in Great Britain, you can legally offer your services before you set up a business. When you begin working for yourself you are classified as a sole trader. The next step is registering with HMRC as self-employed. This should be done if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • you run the business alone and take sole responsibility for it,<\/li>
  • you provide services for multiple clients at a time,<\/li>
  • you yourself want to determine when and how much you will work,<\/li>
  • you want to hire employees,<\/li>
  • you sell services or products,<\/li>
  • you have a fixed rate for your work.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Advantages and disadvantages of being self-employed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Being self-employed brings many benefits which are especially important when setting up a business. Firstly, you are flexible, and you decide how much time you will spend at work. The running costs are relatively low, as you get a significant tax-free Personal Allowance, and you pay low rates towards National Insurance. Additionally, you don\u2019t have to keep detailed accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Being self-employed also comes with a certain degree of risk. As self-employed, you take sole legal responsibility for your company\u2019s debts. What\u2019s more, transferring from self-employed to a different form of business tends to be quite difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
