I wanted to sell my product online as a freelancer. Is registering a business name mandatory?

Sell on Shopee or Lazada?

Hey! If you're selling as a freelancer, registering a business name isn’t always mandatory—it depends on how you want to operate. If you're using your own name, you might not need to register, but if you want a brand name, you’ll likely have to. Also, some e-commerce platforms may require a business registration for payouts or compliance. It’s worth checking the specific platform’s rules and local regulations to be sure!
