FAQ
The only proof that you will get that you have registered as a sole trader is a Unique Tax Reference (UTR) number. HMRC will send this to you around 10 days after your sole trader registration has been completed.
As the owner of a sole proprietorship you're not considered an employee of your own business. This means you don't receive a paycheck or W-2 Form or have taxes withheld from your self-employment income.
A sole proprietor can hire employees. There is no limit to the number of workers you can employ. As an employer, you are responsible for all employment administration, recordkeeping, and taxes. You have the same responsibilities as any other employer.
If you think you'll earn above the trading allowance from your sole trader business in a single tax year, you need to register as self-employed in order to file a tax return and pay tax on your earnings. To register you simply need to tell HMRC that it can expect a Self Assessment tax return from you.
As a sole proprietor, you don't pay yourself a salary and you cannot deduct your salary as a business expense. Technically, your pay is the profit (sales minus expenses) the business makes at the end of the year. You can hire other employees and pay them a salary.
The good news is that you can employ people and remain a sole trader. There's no need to set up a limited company if you don't want to.

You can do this via Airtax through the income tax service, which includes a custom-built sole trader module.
Register for Self Assessment You have to register with HMRC for Self Assessment by 5 October in your business's second tax year. HMRC might fine you if you don't register by this deadline, so don't delay. To register for Self Assessment, you need to visit the gov.uk registration page and submit your details.
