| Post subject: | Private Hire Vehicle Owner (mind boggling) |
A passenger who's a former/retired cabbie asked me this question today. I could not answer @$^$£^£%& Can someone who is not a licensed Operator or PH Driver own and make available for hire licensed PHVs? Clarification: The phv owner only owns and licenses the vehicles. The driver(s) and/or Operator are different entities duly licensed. |

I have never heard of a proprietors license? where would someone get one of those? Our council issue Operators licenses, drivers licenses and vehicle licenses. |

I have a niggling doubt about the whole car renting thing, HC and PH, if our base rents out a car isnt that self-drive hire? ALSO, are the car renters properly self employed as per HMRC rules as im sure 1 stipulation is that they must have made an investment in the business (their own business), which they clearly havent |

Car renters.. Sole traders and partners are classed as self-employed by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). You’re probably self-employed if you: run your business for yourself and take responsibility for its success or failure..........MAYBE have several customers at the same time............................................................MAYBE can decide how, where and when you do your work..............................................YES can hire other people at your own expense to help you or to do the work for you......NO provide the main items of equipment to do your work...........................................NO are responsible for finishing any unsatisfactory work in your own time....................MAYBE charge an agreed fixed price for your work..........................................................YES sell goods or services to make a profit.................................................................YES |
