Register your Company
Getting started - Simple as 123!
Choose your company name
The first step is to choose a company name, this is important as it can become a valuable asset (think of all the well known brands our there!). The name must end in Limited or Ltd and must not imply criminal activity or be offensive.
Don’t worry if you are unsure if the name is available, just enter the name of your choice on our order form and if there are any problems we will contact you. There are a number of suffixes which have special requirements but again we will contact you to discuss should the need arise.
Where is your company based?
Once you have decided on a name, we need to know where your company will be based (NI, Scotland or England/Wales), you also need to nominate a primary 'Registered Office'.
In the relevant area of UK (NI/Scotland/England Wales). This is the official address of the company and the address where Companies House and the Revenue and Custom will send official correspondence. We can provide registered office service with a city centre address.
Who owns the company?
So you have a name and address, now we need to know who will own the business. This can be a single individual or if you are working with others, more than one person.
This must include the following:
A company must have a mimimum of one director [a natural person who is aged over 16].
For each director/shareholder you will need:
- Full Name (including any former names
- Date of Birth
- Nationality
- Occupation
Each director also needs to provide THREE OUT OF THE FOLLOWING SEVEN details to authenticate themselves to Companies House:
- First 3 letters - town of birth
- First 3 letters - mother's maiden name
- First 3 letters - father's first name
- Last 3 digits - telephone number
- Last 3 digits - passport number
- Last 3 digits - national insurance number
These details are used to authenticate each director should changes be required.
Thats It!
Once the details have been submitted you can expect your company back within 24hrs. We offer a fully managed company formation process, taking care of all the fiddly bits so you can get on with your new business.
