Posted - 17 September 2007 : 19:24:43 There is nothing to prevent a bankrupt from being self-employed. So you can start to trade again, subject to restrictions. You will be responsible for keeping accounting records for this business and for dealing with the tax and VAT requirements for the new business.
You must disclose to those you wish to do business with the name (or trading style) under which you were made bankrupt.
No need to be confused, as the OR/Trustee will also be able to advise you.
