Wales rules for a business with a website

Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in Wales:

• A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
• You cannot set non-essential cookies on your website before the visitor has consented to them, and that consent must be actively and clearly given. ICO: cookies
• When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling

Details vary by business, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.
