Guided verification

Use an ACSP if you want an experienced agent to guide the verification process rather than handling it alone.

Remote or in person

We can support Companies House identity verification remotely or in person at our Belfast office, depending on what is suitable for the person being verified.

Clear completion

Once verification is accepted, Companies House emails the personal code to the email address used for the check.

What you need to know

Identity verification for directors and PSCs

Companies House identity verification is now a legal requirement. For a new company, the personal code for each proposed director is needed as part of the incorporation filing. Existing directors and people with significant control (PSCs) also have requirements to connect their verified identity to Companies House records.

ACSP or direct Companies House

You do not have to use an ACSP. Companies House also provides a free direct verification route through GOV.UK One Login. Our ACSP service is for people who prefer guided handling, including remote support or an appointment at our Belfast office.

What happens after verification

Companies House sends your personal code to the email address used for the verification. The code belongs to you, not to a particular company, and is used when you need to confirm your verified identity for relevant company roles and filings.
