Can I Earn £1,000 tax-free?
acceptedAnswer
type
Answer
text
UK taxpayers are allowed to earn £1,000 tax-free in income (not profit) from self-employment every tax year without letting HMRC know about their income, in addition to their <a href="https://goselfemployed.co/glossary/personal-allowance/">personal allowance</a>. This is known as the <a href="https://goselfemployed.co/hmrc-1000-trading-allowance-for-self-employed/">trading income allowance</a> and avoids registering for self-employment, filling out a tax return and paying tax on it.

How Much You Earn as Self Employed Before Paying Tax?
acceptedAnswer
type
Answer
text
Currently you can make £1,000 in income (not profit) each tax year before paying tax. Once you hit this threshold, you'll need to register as self-employed. Once registered you will need to pay income tax and class 4 national insurance on your business profits. You begin to pay class 4 NICs once your profits go over £12,570. You'll pay income tax once all your income (not just your self-employment profits) go over the personal allowance limit of £12,570.

Do Self Employed People Pay National Insurance?
acceptedAnswer
type
Answer
text
Self-employed people pay Class 4 national insurance. Until 6 April 2024, self-employed workers were also required to pay class 2 national insurance. However, this has been <a href="https://goselfemployed.co/changes-to-class-2-national-insurance/" data-type="post" data-id="36531">scrapped</a> for many sole traders, unless they want to pay it voluntarily to top up their national insurance records to protect their entitlement to <a href="https://goselfemployed.co/what-state-benefits-are-taxable/" data-type="post" data-id="27088">state benefits</a>.
