If the business exists in its own right as a company then it will pay corporation taxc on any profits. Dividends are taxed and when you submit your Tax Return you show the nett dividend and the tax credit on the dividend. The tax already paid counts towards your tax already paid in the year. Most sole traders do not make the business a limited company - they trade and take money from the trade as profit.
