This is a US community discussion forum. What applies in your country concerning eBay may not apply here in the US or other countries. You may be better served by logging out of ebay.com and logging back into ebay.com/uk/ or eBay.com/de. Here's a community forum link that may be helpful:

As @nobody*s_perfect mentioned you are in the UK so things may be a bit different. If you are talking about a business account you may be better off just setting up a new account as a business account. The drawback is of course you start out as new seller with no linkage to your personal account feedback or history.

If you are doing this for tax purposes some business account sellers have had some issues with the way eBay has issued tax documents to business accounts. Following is how US sellers can change from a personal to a business account but it is not specific about if/how the account activity is or is not divided.

Changing from a personal account to a business account

If you've already registered with a personal account but would like to upgrade to a business account, here's how:

Go to Account settings in My eBay.
Select Personal information.
Select Edit next to Account type. You may be asked to sign in again.
Select Confirm to upgrade to a Business account.
Specify whether you operate your business as a legal entity or as a sole proprietor and select Continue.
On the following page, enter your business information such as name, contact information, and returns policy. Then select Save.

Note: Please be aware that once you've upgraded your personal account to a business account, it won't be possible to revert back to a personal account.

Hi, You're on ebay.com, which is the US site. You'll get better answers if you go to

https://community.ebay.co.uk/

eBay in the US doesn't have "company" accounts.
