UK Limited Company Formation
Our bespoke company formation service allows
you to choose the name of your new company, subject to availability,
and because we submit all company formations electronically to Companies
House, your company will normally be incorporated within hours of
ordering and your full company pack despatched the same day if ordered
before midday.
Electronic Incorporation
Electronic Incorporation is no longer anything new in the UK, having been in use since 2001 and currently used by the great majority of company registration agents. This process not only enables us to form your new limited company very quickly, but also with your intended directors, company secretary, registered office and shareholders all in place and recorded at Companies House immediately upon incorporation. The major benefit in this is that it allows you to immediately open a bank account and be up and running with your new business without delay. Although companies can be formed quickly with this system, not all agents lodge your own details online at the outset, instead, using nominees to form the company and leaving you to make changes later. You should check this before you order.
Choosing a Company Name
You can use virtually any name for a new company
as long as it is not exactly or very similar to the same as any
other registered name. Some words such as “International”,
“Holdings” and “Group” are designated as
sensitive names and there are rules governing their use in a company
name. There are also new rules under the Companies Act 2006 that
prevent a company using a name that is "too similar" or considered the "same as" another company name without proper consent. See our section
on choosing a company name for
more information.
Price and Package Contents
Whether you choose our Email, CD or Hard Copy package, you will receive a first class service, and all statutory documentation will be fully completed for you. Our prices vary according to the method of delivery and presentation of the documents you receive, unlike many other formation agents whose prices vary according to their service levels.
(see the company package contents
page for more details of what is included)
As we have always maintained since we started forming companies in 1993, we provide only one level of service, that’s why we call it Premier Service.
* IMPORTANT NOTICE
Companies Act 2006
Commencement Orders
Throughout the period from 2007 to late 2009 the Companies
Act 2006 has been gradually implemented in place of the Companies Act 1985. The final parts of the
new Act were enacted on 1 October 2009 and introduced major changes
to company incorporation.
We can assure every client that your
company incorporation will be up to date with the new law. However,
if you are by chance considering ordering elsewhere, it is most
important that you check that the agent you choose has made the
necessary amendments to their standard Articles of Association.
Many agents, particularly those at the
cheaper end of the market will recommend that you adopt the Model
Articles contained in the Companies Act 2006 as the law now allows. Our
professional legal advisers have indicated that these Model Articles
are not sufficient for the proper establishment of UK companies
and companies formed with the Model Articles may well face problems in the future
Company Registrations Online Ltd is a member of ACRA, The Association of Company Registration Agents, who are the only recognised representative trade association in the company formation industry and whose membership presently accounts for over 50% of all incorporations conducted in the UK. ACRA wholly endorses the use of its own detailed bespoke Articles of Association instead of the adoption of Model Articles prescribed by the Companies Act.
All companies incorporated by Company Registrations Online are registered with ACRA Approved Articles of Association.
See our pages relating to The Companies Act 2006 and Articles of Association for more details.
