Hi, Can I set up a limited company now if I don't intend to trade (full time) for a lease a year. I want to start laying the groundwork and maybe set up a office and vehicle. If i can How do i go about it?
Before doing this you need to establish do you need to operate as a limited company or will a sole-trader do. There are many other threads on here dealing with this issue. Suggest you look at them.
Setting up a company incurrs costs and legal requirements - don't do this until you have to..
Are you sure you need a company anyway - what's the problem trading as a sole trader for the first few months?
Take professional advice - you will probably save mere that running a company will cost if not required!!
