As a Student can I be self employed?

Your right to register as self employed while studying will depend on whether:

You have a citizenship from the UK or a state member of the European Economic Area (EEA)** or Switzerland then you can absolutely work for yourself, welcome onboard!

You are an International student in the UK on Tier 4 visa: unfortunately as per Immigration rules, you can’t work on a self-employed basis whilst studying. At this point so sorry to let you go.
