How to become self employed in the UK

This is a video all about becoming self employed for the first time in the UK. I'll take you through some of the steps you need to consider and show you the whole HMRC registration process so you can tell the UK government that you're now self employed! I'll touch on business bank accounts and insurance and also tell you what you'll need to have prepared before starting the registration process.

Please can you look making a video about becoming self employed but in full time work

[charlotteartist]

Thanks so much! This is something they should honestly teach in school! This is the first I've learnt about paying tax and I'm a freelance artist (have been for about a year) and I knew pretty much nothing about paying tax! Now I feel I have a decent grasp and have completed my registration as being self employed!! Can't thank you enough x

Thank you very much for this video! I have been self-employed for half a year, and I only realise I need to register myself now. Looking at instructions online was very confusing. And this step-by-step video made the registration as a sole-trader clear and easy. Thank you again!
