I have a small query and i request senior members and moderators to comment on the same.

Apart from income from salary, i want to prove income from my small time business. But i do not operate from my own company neither i have any business accounts. But i have arranged following documents to prove the income:

1) Copy of invoices raised by me to the client
2) Certificate from my client stating that they have made me payments on following dates along with cheque numbers and amount (duly stamped and signed by the client)
3) Personal bank account statements showing payments made to my account and it actually tally's with the invoice amount and certificate issued by the client
4) Letter from Chartered Account confirming gross and net income

Kindly guide if the above documents willl suffice for claiming points.

Hi,

What if some body working from India while his clients are in UK or US. Like working through his web based portal and getting the business while is money going to his foreign accounts.

In this case, will he be still required to get registered with HMRC and to fulfill all the other stuff

OR it need to be done from India

Secondly, What about registering a business like web based portals. If I own a website, do I still need to registered it as business or it should be fine without doing it.
