Where can you get information about starting your own business in the UK?

As a Chinese citizen, it might be often taunting to start your own business in the UK. At the end, you will probably need some professional help from lawyers and consultants but be aware of multiple scams available online. They might offer you affordable deals without providing any useful information or they may simply lie to you. That's why we would firstly recommend you getting familiar with Her Majesty Revenue and Custom's (HMRC) website:

https://www.gov.uk/set-up-business

It will be your faithful companion throughout your entrepreneurship journey. You can find there all the important information regarding tax rates, crucial deadlines and required documents for registering your start-up. If you encounter a problem, you can always contact HMRC via a web chat, phone or e-mail. Whenever a consultant or a lawyer suggests you to do something, always double check it with the information provided on this website. Remember, "that's what my consultant/lawyer told me" won't be treated as a reasonable excuse when there is an issue with your documents or a tax return.
