Business Registration - Sole Proprietorship

Sole Proprietorship Registration

A Sole Proprietorship is a business owned and run by a single person, with no legal distinction between the owner and the business. It's the simplest structure to start minimal paperwork, low cost, and full control but the owner is personally liable for all business debts. It's ideal for freelancers, small traders, and individual professionals just starting out.
