  • Legal status: Individual business households and private enterprises do not have legal status, corporations have legal status and are only liable within the scope of their capital contribution. Meanwhile, individual business households are civilly liable for business activities with their assets.

Household businesses with income (even if they have not made a profit) still have to pay taxes according to the standard.
  • Tax: Enterprises are a type of contractor tax, an indirect tax, so when an enterprise exports, VAT is a tax collected from customers and then paid back to the state, not a tax that non-trading enterprises owe. Note:
    When issuing production invoices, the company must have a corresponding input invoice;
  • Opening a business: Establishing a business is quite easy, the establishment cost is also quite low, but operating and managing a business requires many factors or when having to close the business, it also costs a lot of money and time. need to think carefully before establishing a business;
  • Payment needs: If your customers are individuals, the need to issue value-added invoices is not high, you should consider establishing a business.

The advantages and disadvantages of each type of business should be carefully considered. Consult, especially the advice of a business lawyer. Then, make a decision that suits your company’s financial and business management capabilities.
