Single pilot taxi on the apron

Hello

If an aircraft is certified for 2 pilots how it looks like you need to move an aircraft over the apron for ex. reposition for different stand . Is it allowed to reposition by one pilot only or better not ?

Better not. I would not even start an engine when alone on the flightdeck, just to be on the safe side.

I have done it lots of times, also have seen technicians do it that weren’t even licensed to fly it, only with a start/taxi course. As long as it isn’t with the intention for take-off where I live it’s ok. Having said this ask your local CAA, they know best about the local rules.
