Comment Comment by WA I second that. There is no need to start a UG or GmbH.Especially not for avoiding personal liability!Because as the director of the company (which you are as a solo founder), you ARE still personally liable (GmbH-Geschäftsführer-Haftung).Get a Gewerbeschein. It's 25€ or so. IHK might want membership fees, but they are really low if you don't have much income.Go with Kleinunternehmerregelung. It makes many things easier if your revenue is below 17,500€ per year.Don't forget: The first 8,000€ in income per year are tax-free. parent WA 10 years ago
