Delivery: This service includes FREE worldwide delivery of the company seal by International Tracked and Signed mail service.

If you need or want to have your company registered for VAT, we will take care of the formalities and process the application on your behalf.

Companies register for VAT due to the following reasons:

• Turnover is expected to exceed £90,000 in the next 12 months. It is therefore a legal requirement to register for VAT, unless the supplies are exempt.
• If turnover is expected to be less than £90,000 but the company wants to register voluntarily.

The VAT registration process explained

As soon as your company is incorporated, we will send you a link to our form by email, asking for some additional information necessary to complete your VAT registration application with HMRC.

We will then apply for your VAT registration online. The timeline for the approval of new VAT registrations is subject to the information received and HMRC's workload, which can vary significantly.

Once your VAT registration has been approved, we will send your VAT Registration Number to you by email. Your VAT Registration Certificate will be sent to you by post by HMRC.

If you have employees or directors who will be taking a salary from your company, it is a legal requirement to register for PAYE with HMRC.

Failure to register promptly can result in penalties, so why not let our highly trained staff take care of this for you to ensure everything is processed correctly.

The PAYE registration process explained

As soon as your company is incorporated, we will send you a link to our form by email, asking for some additional information necessary to complete your PAYE registration application with HMRC.

We will then apply for your PAYE registration online. This process normally takes around 3 weeks and all of your PAYE information will be sent to you by post directly from HMRC.

If your first payday is less than 3 weeks away, do not be concerned. You should process your salary or salaries on the date of your first payday and complete your PAYE return when you receive your registration information from HMRC. If your first filing is late, HMRC will take into account the timing of your registration so there should be no issues arising from this filing.

It is a legal requirement for all UK company directors, LLP members, secretaries, and persons of significant control e.g. shareholders who own more than 25% of the company's shares to provide a service address where official correspondence from government bodies such as Companies House and HMRC can be sent to them personally.

Mail from the following government bodies are covered by this service: Companies House, HMRC, Government Gateway, Department for Work & Pensions (DWP), Office for National Statistics, Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and Court documents.

Please note: The forwarding of official service address mail by scan and email is free. Mail will be forwarded on a daily basis.

This service is renewable on a 12 monthly basis at the price of £24.00.

If you are a non-UK resident opening a UK limited company, you may need your company documents legalised before they can be used overseas for certain purposes; such as opening a business bank account. An Apostille Certificate is a form of authentication which can be attached to official UK documents to allow their use in other countries.

This official authentication will ensure the documents are verified for use in all countries which are party to the 1961 Hague Convention.

Our Apostille service can be used to legalise various company documents, including your Certificate of Incorporation, Memorandum & Articles of Association and Share Certificates. You may also specify additional documents, as required, during the ordering process. Documents which are not filed at Companies House or existing signed documents, will need to be provided by you.

Please note: Documents can take up to 14 days to be certified.
