Frequently asked questions
Do I need a company to work as a VA?
Not legally, but a company limits your personal liability, looks more credible to business clients, and makes tax management simpler as your income grows.
Which is better for VAs, UK Ltd or US LLC?
UK Ltd suits VAs whose clients are primarily in the UK or Europe. US LLC is better if most of your clients are North American or if you want access to US payment tools like Stripe US.
Can I continue working on Upwork or Fiverr through a company?
Yes. Most freelance platforms allow you to operate under a business entity. You will need to update your tax and payment details on each platform.
What expenses can my VA company deduct?
Typical deductions include software subscriptions, internet costs, a home office allowance, equipment, and professional development. Consult an accountant for your specific jurisdiction.
