Starting a business can be exciting, but it also comes with a lot of questions. From choosing the right structure to registering with HMRC and handling your first tax return, we’ve answered the most common questions to help you launch with confidence and build a strong financial foundation.
Start by choosing a business idea and deciding on a legal structure, such as a sole trader, partnership, or limited company. Next, register your business with Companies House and open a business bank account. Getting advice from experts can make this easier.
If you run a limited company or partnership, you must register with Companies House. As a sole trader, you must register with HMRC for taxes. Registration keeps your business compliant with UK laws.
Startup costs depend on your business type and size. Common expenses include registration fees (starting at £12), legal help, accounting services, and office space and marketing costs.
The best structure depends on your goals. Sole traders have simple tax duties, partnerships share liability, and limited companies protect personal assets. An expert can help you choose the right one.
Depending on your business structure, you may need to pay income tax, VAT, corporation tax, and National Insurance contributions. A financial advisor can clarify your tax obligations.
In London, you can find funding through government grants, startup loans, angel investors, venture capital, and crowdfunding. A strong business plan can improve your chances of getting funding.
Yes, a business plan is important. It details your goals, strategies, target market, and financial forecasts. You will also need it when seeking funding or presenting to investors.
If you run a limited company, yes, you must have one. For sole traders, keeping personal and business money separate for better record-keeping and easier tax filing is best.
You must register as an employer with HMRC. Ensure your employees can work in the UK and follow minimum wage, contracts, and workplace safety laws.
Register for VAT if your annual income is over £85,000. You can do this online through HMRC but must file VAT returns regularly.
Some businesses, such as restaurants, construction, and financial services, need specific licenses or permits. Check with your local council or a business advisor for details.
Yes, many startups begin at home. However, you might need permission from your landlord, mortgage provider, or local council based on your business activities.
London offers many options, such as coworking spaces, serviced offices, and long-term leases. To find a good location, use platforms like WeWork, Regus, or local real estate agents.
You must keep accurate records, file annual tax returns, pay employee salaries, and manage VAT or corporation tax. Regular financial checks are important for compliance and growth planning.
