All companies are legally required to have a director appointed. The director is responsible for the running of the company, accounts, records, and reporting to HMRC and Companies House.
The Memorandum of Association is a legal document in agreeing to form a company by the initial shareholders and to take at least one share.
The Articles of Association are rules set out on how the directors and shareholders will run the company.
Model Articles of Association provided by Companies House will be used in forming your company
A company registered office is included, but you change it at a later date to your home address as long as it’s located within the UK. For security purposes, this is not advisable as it will appear on the public companies house register.
It’s also important to note that once your home address has been used as a registered office it will remain as a permanent record on the Companies House register even if you change it at a later date.
You need to choose a unique company name to provide Companies House. You will also need to provide the director’s full name, residential address, service address, date of birth, nationality, occupation, telephone number, place of birth, and three security questions.
Legal obligations under the Money Laundering Regulations and UK Government guidelines require us to obtain proof of identity and proof of residency of persons in significant control. Please visit verification for further information.
Registering a company will normally be within 6-8 hours on business days. This can depend on how busy Companies House is on that day.
Your director’s service address can only be used to receive official company mail addressed directly to the director. To receive general business mail purchase our mail forwarding package for directors.
Statutory mail is scanned and uploaded onto our secure encrypted platform and sent only as an email link.
Sending scanned mail as attachments is inherently unsafe and not recommended. Read our post on email attachments.
