A curious digital nomad asked:
"I work freelance from home. Do I really need legal formalities?" π§☕
✅ Answer: Oh yes! Freelancing ≠ Free from law π⚖️
Here’s your quick legal checklist if you’re a freelancer/gig worker in India:
π Must-Have Legal Essentials:
✅ Freelance Service Agreement – Outline scope, payment, timelines & IP ownership
✅ GST Registration – Required if you cross ₹20L (or ₹10L in some states)
✅ Invoicing System – Professional invoices = professional payments πΈ
✅ Income Tax Compliance – File returns, claim deductions (Section 44ADA rocks!)
✅ Data Privacy Clauses – Especially for content, tech, design, and digital gigs
✅ IP Ownership Clauses – Secure YOUR creativity or define what client owns
