Getting paid from the UK should be simple. A client in London clicks send, and you get the money. But if you live outside the UK — whether you are in Pakistan, India, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Philippines, Kenya, or even the US — you quickly realize it’s not that easy. I learned this the hard way. In 2023, I registered my UK Ltd company while living in Lahore. My first client from Manchester paid me £500 via PayPal. I was excited for 2 hours.
