Company Secretarial Services for UK Businesses and Directors

Running a limited company in the UK comes with ongoing statutory and Companies House compliance responsibilities. Directors are legally required to ensure company filings, statutory registers, and corporate records are accurate, up to date, and submitted on time. As a business grows, these obligations become increasingly complex, time-consuming, and risky to manage without specialist support.

Our company secretarial services support UK businesses and directors with Companies House filings, statutory records, confirmation statements, company changes and ongoing company administration. We can also support you with current Companies House identity verification requirements. Existing directors must provide their Companies House personal code through the company’s next confirmation statement. New directors appointed from 18 November 2025 must provide their code when they are appointed or when a company is incorporated. PSCs must also verify their identity and provide their personal code within the applicable 14-day period. Whether you operate a single limited company or manage multiple entities, we can help keep your company administration organised and your filing requirements on track.

We support:

  • Limited companies and LLPs
  • Owner-managed businesses
  • Directors with multiple companies
  • Growing and scaling businesses
  • Businesses seeking outsourced compliance support

What people are saying about us

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I legally need a company secretary in the UK?

Private limited companies are not legally required to appoint a company secretary, but directors remain fully responsible for compliance obligations.

What happens if I miss a Companies House filing?

The consequences depend on the filing involved. Late annual accounts can result in automatic financial penalties, while failure to file required accounts or confirmation statements can lead to further enforcement action and potential strike-off.

Can accountants provide company secretarial services?

Yes. Accountants with the appropriate expertise can provide full company secretarial support alongside compliance services.

Can you manage filings for multiple companies?

Yes. We regularly support directors and groups managing multiple companies and complex structures.

Can I use your address as my registered office?

Yes, where our registered office service is included in your arrangement. A registered office must be an appropriate physical address in the UK, in the same country in which the company is registered. Someone acting for the company must be able to receive company post there, and delivery must be capable of being acknowledged. The registered office address appears on the public Companies House register, so using an approved service address can help avoid publishing a home address.

Who is responsible for company secretarial compliance in the UK?

Directors are legally responsible for ensuring company secretarial compliance, even when services are outsourced.
