Self Employment Information
As Accountants for Nutritionists, we will prepare your accounts and submit your MTD quarterly updates and Self Assessment Tax Return to HMRC.
We only support Free Agent online accounting software for bookkeeping and HMRC submissions.
In the UK, a Self Employed Nutritionist is classified as a Sole Trader and submits Accounts and Tax Returns to HMRC by Self Assessment. We will file these for you.
Income Tax is paid on the business profits, and usually also you will be required to pay Class 4 National Insurance.
Class 2 National Insurance is now voluntary.
For Self Employed people there is no legal distinction between the owner of the business and the business itself. A Self Employed person is not an employee of the business.
Self Employed people are entitled to keep the profits of the business, after paying any Tax and National Insurance, but a Self Employed person has unlimited liability for the debts of the business.
The potential taxes include:
- Income Tax
- Class 2 National Insurance (now voluntary)
- Class 4 National Insurance
Please note also that Self Employed people pay Student Loan repayments through the Self Assessment Tax Return process.
The HMRC Tax Payments On Account will also usually apply to healthcare practitioners.
Limited Company Information
Our Limited Company webpage explains some key differences between being practising as Self Employed or a Limited Company.
Please note, from January 2025, we will not be providing services for new limited company clients.
