What It Is

A Simple, Compliant Path to Your UK Company

A UK Limited Company (LTD) gives you a recognized, credible business structure with limited personal liability and its own legal identity, separate from its owners. It's the standard choice for freelancers, ecommerce sellers, agencies, and startups operating in or selling into the UK market.

CoFilings® manages the entire formation process — from choosing a compliant company name and preparing your Memorandum and Articles of Association, to filing with Companies House and delivering your official incorporation documents. No confusing forms, no missed requirements.

We also help non-UK residents form their LTD remotely, including support with your registered office address, UTR registration, and business bank account so you're ready to operate from day one.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be a UK citizen or resident to form an LTD?
No. Non-UK residents can fully own and direct a UK LTD. We specialize in helping international founders form their company remotely, including registered office and banking support.
What do I need to register a company name?
Your chosen name must be unique and meet Companies House naming rules. We run an availability check and confirm compliance before filing.
How long does the formation process take?
Most UK company registrations are completed within 24 hours of submission to Companies House, though timelines can vary slightly depending on volume and document review.
What is a registered office address and do I need one?
Every UK company must have a registered office address in the UK, which appears on the public register. We can guide you through compliant options if you don't have a UK address.
Can you help me open a UK business bank account?
Yes. We guide and assist you through opening a business bank account for your newly formed LTD, including options available to non-residents.
What ongoing requirements does an LTD have?
UK companies must file an annual confirmation statement and annual accounts with Companies House, along with corporation tax returns with HMRC. We send compliance reminders and offer annual filing services.
