    Apologies if I have posted in the wrong section of this forum

    Just starting out as a Contractor outside IR35 recently set up a limited company via Tide and just wondering what other steps I need to take I am aware of the PII insurance having read up on this but I have a 3-Month contract potential with extension

    Any advice or pointers would be much appreciated

    Apologises again if I have posted in the wrong section

    Take a look at the first timers guide on the right. First Timers Guides - for IT Contractors | Contractor UK

    Read through the articles and that should give you a good start.

        Who has determined that the contract is outside IR35 by the way?

          The contract length makes no difference to the things you're going to need. As a starter...

          1. SDS from the client (or fee payer) to confirm your outside status
          2. Contract review
          3. An accountant
          4. Professional indemnity insurance (check the contract for the level of cover the client/agency requires)
          5. A bank account in the company's name
          6. The understanding that your company's money is not your money
