Setting Up a UK Company for TikTok Shop Sellers

TikTok Shop UK is growing fast. A UK company lets you onboard as a UK seller, register for VAT, and get paid into a UK business account.

How to set up your UK company

The process is the same wherever you are in Pakistan, and you never need to travel to the UK. As tiktok shop sellers, here is how we get you trading:

1. Register your UK limited company — usually within 24 hours, with directors, shareholders and share structure set up correctly.
2. Get a UK registered office — a UK address for Companies House and HMRC, keeping your home address private.
3. Register for VAT and an EORI where needed — so you can import stock and reclaim or charge VAT correctly (see below).
4. Open a UK business bank account — so your company can receive payments and pay suppliers in GBP.

Banking & getting paid

A UK business or fintech account (such as Wise or Revolut Business) lets your company invoice clients, receive marketplace payouts and pay suppliers in pounds — usually without visiting the UK. We guide non-resident directors through the options and help prepare your documents.

VAT & tax for TikTok Shop Sellers

VAT. Standard-rated goods carry 20% VAT once registered; you reclaim VAT on stock and ads. Imported stock needs an EORI and import VAT. TikTok may withhold VAT on some transactions — we make sure it is accounted for correctly.

Corporation tax. Corporation tax applies to profits; we optimise how you draw income. You take money out as a mix of salary and dividends, and we plan this efficiently.

Key considerations for tiktok shop sellers

• Seller onboarding as a UK business
