Registering a company in the UK is a straightforward process, but it requires specific documentation to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Whether you’re setting up a private limited company (Ltd), a partnership, or any other business structure, having the correct paperwork is essential.
Here are the key documents required for company registration in the UK:
1. Memorandum of Association – This is a legal statement signed by all initial shareholders (or guarantors) agreeing to form the company.
2. Articles of Association – These are the rules about how the company will be run, agreed upon by the directors and shareholders.
3. Form IN01 – This includes important company details such as the proposed company name, registered office address, director(s) and shareholder(s) details, and share capital information.
4. Proof of Identity and Address – All company directors and shareholders must provide valid identification and proof of address, such as a passport, driver’s license, or utility bill.
5. Registered Office Address – This must be a physical UK address where official correspondence can be sent.
Once all documents are prepared and submitted—typically via Companies House or through an agent—the company can usually be registered within 24 hours.
