Sole Trader or LTD Company?

Recommended Posts

Good evening all!

I am due to start up trading part time whilst working full time.

 

Now this may be an odd one but I cannot decide if it is worthwhile setting myself up as a sole trader or a limited company?!

 

I would really appreciate your thoughts on this.

 

thank you in advance.

I am no accountant but in my opinion you've got nothing to lose from setting up as a LTD company it's very easy to do, you limit your liability in case things go wrong and you pay less tax.

Not exactly...Setting up a company is easy but there is a lot more to consider than the fact that you may pay less tax. Everyones personal situation is different and unless we know all the facts there is no easy answer to this question hence my original reply....Speak to an accountant.
