Company formation
Incorporation with the right officers, share structure and SIC codes, a registered office, and the first filing calendar set before you need it. London and the South through Supreme; the North through our sister firm Incorpwise.
Every service, one list
This is our working catalogue, not a brochure. Each line is a written procedure we run for clients today. Where the law needs the director present, or a qualified specialist, it says so.
Getting the company right at the start is cheaper than fixing it later. Every downstream document, from the bank application to the letterhead, asserts what the register says.
Incorporation with the right officers, share structure and SIC codes, a registered office, and the first filing calendar set before you need it. London and the South through Supreme; the North through our sister firm Incorpwise.
An aged company from our stock, with confirmation statement and first accounts filed, then the VAT, bank and EORI route prepared for you to complete as the new owner.
A private company must have at least one director. With none, nothing can be filed until it is fixed. We prepare the appointment; the incoming director signs.
Companies House now verifies the identity of directors and PSCs. The personal code it issues belongs to the person, not the company, and follows them. We get it done and recorded once.
Companies must update their own PSC register within 14 days of a change and file it within a further 14. We review the change the same day and file it.
Several of these are free and quick. All of them stall for months if a step is missed, and most of them depend on each other in an order that is not written down anywhere.
We prepare the application and the evidence. The submission goes from your own Government Gateway with you on the call, which is what the rules require. We then chase HMRC for the number.
A UTR is issued about a fortnight after incorporation and posted to the registered office. If it went to a former agent, we order a copy or register for Corporation Tax where that was missed. No UTR means no VAT application.
Needed to import, export and register for licences. Free and quick. A GB EORI does not cover Northern Ireland movements; that needs the separate XI number, which itself needs the GB one first.
Through We Switch Payroll: scheme registration, migration from your current provider, RTI on or before every payday, pension auto-enrolment, PAYE and CIS together for construction.
Without it nothing can be filed. A replacement is posted to the registered office and takes 5 to 10 working days, so we request it before anything that depends on it.
The ones that catch businesses out are the ones nobody told them applied. Each of these is covered in detail on the licences page.
HMRC approval before you trade, with a fit-and-proper assessment and a 45-day minimum notice period. No fee. We prepare; a specialist reviews before submission.
A four-figure application fee, around 90 days, an inspection and a qualified Responsible Person on call. Our job is honest qualification first, then scoping with a specialist.
Free, cannot be refused, and required at least 28 days before you start. Registration puts you on the local authority hygiene inspection list; it is not an approval.
The tier is what everyone gets wrong, and the wrong tier is the same as not being registered. We ask what you actually carry and register the right one.
Passes the compliance test only if your filing record is clean, which is exactly the record our other work creates. We prepare; you submit.
An overdue confirmation statement is what starts a strike-off. It is the cheapest problem on this list to make disappear, and the most expensive to ignore.
Filed with the officer list checked against what we hold first. We never confirm a record we know to be wrong.
Accounts are prepared by a qualified accountant, never by an administrator. We assemble the records, brief the accountant and chase the deadline. Filing wrong accounts costs far more than filing late ones.
If a strike-off completes, the company is dissolved and every asset passes to the Crown. Objecting buys time; filing the overdue documents is the actual fix, and we do both.
Three routes depending on what you still hold: online reset, the helpdesk by phone, or collecting the basics first. A wrong attempt burns a two-hour lockout, so we band your situation before we try.
A resigned director still shown as in charge, an old registered office, a PSC that moved. We correct the record and keep the history, because a former officer’s entry is valid anti-money-laundering history, not an error.
Every client gets a Google account as part of onboarding. Doing the rest while the branding is in front of us takes half the time of coming back later.
Your own Google account, a shared portal for documents and deadlines, and one login that opens the rest. Built and handed over in a single live session.
Channels set up on the same login, with an AI content assistant drafting posts. Nothing publishes until the director has approved the first batch.
A fast site with lead capture wired in, built and hosted through Supreme Digital.
Send the company number. We check the register before we call, so the first conversation is about what is actually due.
Book a call
A short call, no pressure. We check the public register before we speak to you, so we can tell you what is actually due, what it will cost if it is left, and which of it we can take off your desk this week.
