Get your dad to talk to someone at the tax office, they will give you all the info you need and they're
usually very helpful.

Good luck

18 to be a registered business owner isnt it?

For legal reasons id think, Look at that thread with jake bevon at 17?!

There is no age limit where the government can tax you on your income. So sureley you can be a soletrader or something at 14?

You need to be over 16, because it is the law that you should be in full time education upto that point. After that point you can register as self employed using HMRC online registration pages.

If you need any more help give me a shout!

I'm sure you can register as being self-employed prior to 16, you must be 18 thought to be a company director.

You cant be self employed whilst in full time education
