Entrepreneurs, self-employed professionals and individuals are not the same legal category. Payment technology and tax obligations should be reviewed separately. This article is not legal advice.
Identify the seller status
An entrepreneur, a self-employed professional and an individual can have different obligations. Local rules must be checked at publication time.
Separate payment acceptance from receipts
A website or payment link can support payment acceptance, while receipt obligations depend on local rules and fiscal setup. See fiscal receipts.
Payment purpose
The payment purpose should be clear for the customer and accounting: service, order and seller. Manual transfers without statuses make reconciliation harder.
| Status | What to check | Who should verify |
|---|---|---|
| Entrepreneur | contract, receipts, accounting | accounting/tax expert |
| Self-employed | allowed activity and receipt | official rules |
| Individual | whether business payments are allowed | legal review |
