Sole Trader or Limited Company? We'll Help
Deciding between trading as a sole trader or forming a limited company is a big step for any YouTuber. Our Accountants in Edgware provide personalised advice based on your earnings, goals, and future plans. We weigh the pros and cons of each structure, considering tax efficiency and liability, so you can make an informed choice that suits your creative career.
- Tax efficiency – we compare how much tax you'd pay under each structure without exact figures.
- Dividend vs salary – if you have a limited company, we plan the most tax-efficient way to pay yourself.
- Company formation – we guide you through the process of setting up a limited company.
- Corporation tax – we explain your obligations and help you minimise your tax bill legally.

International Income & Cross-Border Tax for Creators
YouTube pays from the US, TikTok pays from Ireland, a brand deal lands from Dubai and your Patreon settles in dollars. Each of those routes carries its own withholding tax, VAT and currency treatment. We make sure you claim treaty relief where it applies, report foreign income correctly and never pay tax twice on the same pound.

W-8BEN forms and treaty rates so Google withholds 0% instead of 30%.

Correct exchange rate treatment on every payout and platform fee.
VAT on digital services
Place-of-supply rules for overseas brands, agencies and subscribers.
