Best Answer

Only an adult can execute a legal contract. You will need to be 18 years of age or legally emancipated in order to own and operate a business. (This does not apply to personal services such as housework or lawn care, but in some cases minors performing such work may have legal restrictions.)

Can a preteen have her own business?

Depends on a) the business, and b) the preteen. If it's a "babysitting business," I don't see anything wrong with an 11/12 year old doing it (although, if they wanted to make it official and get a business license, I imagine an adult will need to get it for them). If it's a 10 year old that wants to own a clothing business or a 9 year old wanting to own a restaurant...well, I think that's just wishful thinking. That's a dream they'll either outgrow or hopefully achieve when they're an adult.
