Frequently asked questions

Can an Indian founder register a UK limited company?

A UK private limited company can have overseas directors and shareholders, but the company must meet UK registration requirements, including an appropriate registered office address in the UK.

What information is needed for Companies House?

Typical requirements include company name, registered office, director and shareholder details, SIC code, PSC information and the companyโ€™s constitutional documents. Identity-verification rules should also be checked at the time of filing.

Does registration automatically cover tax and operations?

No. Incorporation is only one step. HMRC, VAT, PAYE, banking, licences and other operating requirements may apply depending on the business.
