How does one register to be self-employed in the UK?
Log on to the HMRC website and establish your Government Gateway account to apply for self-employment. The next step is to register for Self Assessment as an independent trader. HMRC will mail you a Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) to your home address in roughly 10 days. Clients will be signed up for Class 2 National Insurance. You have to register by 5 October after the tax year when you started your business. You must next prepare and submit a tax return every year.
