What's involved

Here's exactly what's involved — and how your own named accountant handles each part for you.

Company formation and company secretarial, done properly

Getting your company set up correctly from day one saves a great deal of correction later. We incorporate your company at Companies House — usually same day online — with the details and documents arranged the right way.

Choosing the right structure first

A limited company is not automatically the best vehicle for everyone, and the right structure depends on your plans, your risk and how you want to be taxed. Before we form anything, we help you choose with your eyes open.

What goes into incorporating a company

Incorporation involves more than just a name. There are several decisions and details to settle, and the rules on some of them have tightened recently.

Statutory registers and the confirmation statement

Once a company exists, the law requires it to keep certain records and to confirm its details to Companies House each year. We maintain these for you so they are always accurate and up to date.

Identity verification under the new rules

The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act is introducing identity verification for directors and people with significant control as part of a wider effort to improve the reliability of the public register.

Registering for the right taxes

A new company usually has tax registrations to deal with soon after it is formed, and missing them creates problems quickly. We handle the registrations that apply to you.
