Hi All,
I am just thinking about starting work as a sole trader and wondering -are there any restrictions/requirements regarding education / experience/type of business in order to register as a sole trader.
I would like to work as accounts assistant /fund administrator and achieved only FETAC Level 6 /for now /with some relevant experience...I saw posting from a person ACCA qualified but my case is not this...

Is it compulsory to hire an accountant if I am a sole trader?
How should I define my business as I wish to have some "freedom" in looking for a job in two fields -let's say accounting and financial services /there's a field in the Revenue registration form asking me to be more specific in defyning the business/.
What is meant under the term "services" /ref.:VAT registration/?
Thanks!

No, but it would be better if you did, to be sure, to be sure

>qualified

On a related matter how does one get a Tax Adviser Identification Number (TAIN)
 
my main question remains not answered :((..so many ppl are posting replies and nobody knows anything about if there are only specified positions/fields that can be executed by a sole trader...??!?!
