What is Professional income?

Income from activities based mainly on personal knowledge, expertise or professional skill rather than capital, carried on independently under personal responsibility.

Fees of lawyers, accountants, doctors, architects and consultants fall into this category. A professional receipt is issued, and buyers obliged to withhold tax deduct it from payments.
