Company House Services
Streamlined compliance. Hassle-free management. Expert guidance.
Navigating the formalities of Companies House is an essential part of business administration. Every limited company in the UK must comply with a range of filing and reporting obligations — from incorporating your company to submitting annual accounts and managing statutory filings. ARK Consulting offers comprehensive Company House services designed to make these processes straightforward, ensuring your company stays compliant, efficient, and legally sound.
We handle the full range of regulatory requirements with ease, allowing you to focus on running your business while we ensure all your official obligations are met.
Company Formation & Incorporation
Get your business started the right way.
Starting a limited company is more than just filling out forms — it’s about creating a robust foundation for growth, with the right structure and compliance in place from the outset. At ARK Consulting, we simplify the company formation process, providing everything you need to set up your business efficiently and in full compliance with UK regulations.
What We Do:
- Company Name Availability Check: We confirm that your chosen business name is available for registration and not already in use.
- Incorporation Filing: We handle all paperwork and submissions to Companies House, including articles of association, memorandum of association, and director/shareholder details.
- Registered Office Address: We offer a registered office service, so your official correspondence comes directly to us — ensuring privacy and convenience.
- Business Bank Account Setup: We help streamline the process of opening a business bank account, ensuring you meet all requirements for UK banking.
- Corporation Tax Registration: We ensure your company is registered with HMRC for Corporation Tax and other relevant taxes.
By entrusting us with your company formation, you can be confident that everything will be set up correctly, from your business structure to your tax obligations.
Annual Accounts & Financial Statements
Stay compliant and transparent with statutory filings.
As a limited company, you are required to file annual financial statements with Companies House. These accounts not only keep you compliant with the law but also provide a clear picture of your business’s financial health to stakeholders. At ARK Consulting, we ensure that your annual accounts are prepared accurately, filed on time, and meet all relevant regulations.
Our Services Include:
- Preparation of Statutory Accounts: Accurate and compliant financial statements, including balance sheets, profit and loss accounts, and cash flow statements.
- Filing with Companies House: We submit your annual accounts within the required time frame, avoiding penalties and maintaining good standing with regulatory bodies.
- Director’s Report & Auditor’s Report: Depending on the size of your company, we ensure the correct documentation is provided for shareholder review and auditing purposes.
- Preparation for HMRC: Along with your Companies House filing, we prepare your corporation tax return, ensuring that both sets of filings are in sync.
By preparing your accounts in a timely manner and keeping them transparent, we not only help you stay compliant but also give investors, banks, and creditors the confidence to work with you.
Confirmation Statements
Keep your business records up to date.
Every company in the UK must file an annual Confirmation Statement with Companies House. This document confirms that the details held by Companies House (e.g. directors, shareholders, registered office) are accurate and up-to-date. Failing to file this document can result in penalties and even dissolution of your company. ARK Consulting ensures that your Confirmation Statement is filed on time and accurately.
What We Do:
- Review of Company Information: We ensure that all details, including company officers, shareholdings, and registered office, are accurate and current.
- Timely Filing: We file your Confirmation Statement with Companies House on your behalf, ensuring you meet deadlines and remain compliant.
- Updates & Amendments: If any details need to be updated, we guide you through the process and make the necessary changes, from director changes to shareholder updates.
With ARK Consulting managing this process, you can rest assured that your company records are always correct and compliant.
Filing for Changes in Company Structure
Efficiently manage internal changes with minimal disruption.
Over time, your company may undergo changes in structure, whether it’s a change of directors, shareholders, or business address. All of these changes must be filed with Companies House, and ARK Consulting ensures that these filings are made accurately and promptly.
We Handle:
- Director Changes: Whether you’re appointing or removing directors, we handle the filings and ensure that everything is registered correctly.
- Shareholder Changes: We assist with share transfers, new shareholder entries, or capital restructures, filing the necessary forms with Companies House.
- Registered Office Address Changes: If you move your business address, we ensure this is updated on the public record without delay.
We handle all necessary documentation and filing so that you can focus on running your business smoothly through any transition.
