As an Amazon seller (UK), you will have to pay tax on your income as you would on any other self-employed income. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First though, you\u2019ll need to work out how you\u2019re viewed in the eyes of HMRC. This is known as your employment status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I know my employment status?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This depends on what portion of your income selling on Amazon accounts for. Does it make up all of your income or do you use your earnings to top up your salary?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. It\u2019s all of my income<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    In this case, you are a full-time Amazon seller and you will be taxed as a self-employed worker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. It tops up my salary from another job<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      In this case, you are both employed and self-employed and you will be taxed as if it is a side gig.<\/p>\n\n\n
