Hello @awariat

I just want to confirm your query - are you just looking for general advice on whether a self employed person can be a shareholder of a limited company?

Yes. please. I try to find on google but it is not clear.

What I want to do is : LTD company imports goods from EU and sells to customers in UK. It sells as well to self employer (my girlfriend) who sells it on Amazon. But I want her to be shareholder of LTD as well - but I don’t know is it OK.

Generally speaking, yes, a self employed person can also be a shareholder in another company. However, it may be worth running it passed someone with a bit more know-how on this. Our friends at The Company Wizard may be able to help:
