You have to call seller support and ask them to reopen that section of your account
You need to register with hmrc first
I believe you can do it anytime online

#22

So i actually am already registered as self employed i also have my UTR number do i still need to inform HMRC?

#23

For another business or this one ?
You don’t need to re-register you just add on the new business info when entering a tax return
You now need to contact seller support and ask them to reopen that section

#24

I have been working as a self employed contractor in recent years. Ok thanks ill make contact with seller support.

#25

You use the same UTR number
Speak with your accountant about the new business on here

#26

For the purposes of Amazon they do require a fairly recent confirmation letter of your UTR so you may be as well ringing them and requesting one, especially if you have been registered with HMRC for a while, your original letter may be out of date for Amazon - they do need paper proof, not just you quoting your UTR.

Hi @JillyB1

Thanks for the advice, just wondering will i need to open a business account to sell as a sole-trader on here or will my current account do?

Thanks.

#28

You need to change this account to a business account

#29

Sorry i meant to say do i need to open a Business Bank Account?

#30

I would as most personal bank accounts don’t permit business transactions and it separates out your transactions for ease of accounting

#31

I would say definitely yes, do open a separate business bank account.
Makes things much easier when doing accounts, rather than trying to separate personal transactions from business ones.

#32

Hi there can anyone recommend a Business Bank Account for me to use?
I was just in the process of setting up a Tide account but i have just read that Tide is not part of Amazons approved Payment Service Providers, Is this correct? Thanks.

#33

Starling are acceptable as an online as are uk high street banks

#34

Thanks may I also ask, I have spoke to my accountant and decided to open a LTD company, Does it matter that my Company Name doesn’t match my Amazon Seller Account Name?

#35

You will need to change your amazon account to the ltd company and re go verification
The bank account must be in the ltd name too
