Frequently Asked Questions About Online Marketplaces

In the UK, income from online selling is subject to tax. If you earn more than £1,000 from selling goods online through platforms like eBay or Etsy, you must report this income to HMRC.

Even if your earnings fall below this threshold, it’s good practice to keep records in case your income increases or you need to provide proof of earnings. Ensure you comply with all tax obligations to avoid any potential issues.

You can sell up to £1,000 worth of goods in a tax year through online marketplaces without having to pay tax or report it to HMRC. This is known as your trading allowance.

If your earnings exceed this amount, you must declare the income on your self-assessment tax return and pay any tax due. Remember to keep detailed records of all your transactions and expenses.

Income from side hustles is taxable in the UK. Whether you earn money from freelance work, gig economy jobs or other side ventures, you must report this income to HMRC if it exceeds the Personal Allowance or your trading allowance thresholds. You’ll need to include this income in your self-assessment tax return and pay any applicable tax.
If your online sales on eBay exceed £1,000 in a tax year, you are required to inform HMRC and report your income on a self-assessment tax return. If your selling activities become regular or profit-driven, you should declare them to ensure compliance with tax regulations and avoid any potential issues with HMRC.
You can earn up to £1,000 from a hobby without having to pay tax in the UK, thanks to the trading allowance. If your hobby generates income beyond this amount, you need to report it to HMRC and pay any tax due.

The income from a hobby should not be regular or profit-driven; otherwise, it might be classified as a business, which could affect your tax obligations. Keep accurate records to manage your tax responsibilities.
