Questions people ask
Do freelancers need to incorporate?
Not automatically. Many do fine as sole proprietors; incorporation starts to matter with liability exposure, bigger contracts or certain tax situations. The guides walk through the decision factors.
Is this legal or tax advice?
No — everything here is educational and general. Entity rules and taxes vary by state and country, so make the actual decision with a lawyer or accountant who knows your situation.
What does maintaining a one-person company involve?
Typically an annual report, a small state fee, a separate bank account and keeping business and personal money apart. Skipping those is the most common way the liability shield fails.
