Taxi driver

[princ]

Hi everybody;

I am Croatian national and I am not sure can I work in UK as a taxi driver for a private hire company.
I use to live in UK for 10 years in the past and worked as a bus driver for 7 years ,and have full UK driving licence pass my tests in UK.
I never been arrested and during the time I spent in UK I always worked and pay taxes,exept first six month.
The question is; when Croatia join EU on 01.07.2013. can I register as a self employed taxi driver and start work ?
I know UK restricted work for Croatian nationals ,but also say in information it is possible to work on self employed basis and not need to ask for permission from UKBA .
Please help me with advice,
thanks

You maybe should put this question under "EEA-route Applications".

But i think it shouldnt be a problem.
