This is definitely not a UK quirk. http://www.markelinternational.com/regions/germany/products-and-expertise/specialist-sectors/professional-indemnity/ http://www.markelinternational.com/regions/germany/products-... There is a debate here about whether or not Hoffice counts as a business, and whether or not a Hoffice host would have to pay tax. To my mind, these are moot points: 1. It will look like a business, so a tax inspection is a possibility, no matter how remote. 2. Hoffice and hoffice hosts need to understand the legal situation if a guest decides to sue. You could probably be a Hoffice host for years and never have a single problem. Or you could be the unlucky one, and encounter these issues.
