What is a sole trader?

  • You run and are responsible for the enterprise as a private person.
  • Your personal identity number becomes the registration number of the enterprise.
  • You are personally liable for holding contracts and paying debts.
  • There is no demand for a start-up capital.

If possible, use the e-services on the website verksamt.se when starting up the enterprise. If you register your enterprise with Bolagsverket the business name will obtain protection in the county of registration. It may be necessary to register the enterprise with Bolagsverket, if your enterprise participates in public procurements or if the enterprise needs a permit to carry out certain business activities.
