Can a non-UK resident form a UK limited company?

The requirements depend on your circumstances, but you will generally need to provide valid identification and personal details for the directors and shareholders. We will confirm the exact documents required before preparing your application.
How long does it take to register a UK limited company?
Most straightforward applications are processed by Companies House relatively quickly, but approval times are not guaranteed and additional checks may cause delays. We review the information before submission to help avoid unnecessary delays.
Do I need to verify my identity with Companies House?
Identity verification is now part of the Companies House framework for individuals involved in UK companies. Depending on your role and circumstances, verification may be required. We can assist non-UK residents with the Companies House identity verification process.
What do I need to do after my UK company is registered?
After incorporation, your company has ongoing legal and compliance obligations. These may include maintaining a registered office, filing confirmation statements and annual accounts, keeping company information up to date and dealing with applicable HMRC requirements.
