Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and Terms of Use

A Confirmation Statement is a report that each UK limited company needs to submit to Companies House at least once a year. It is a report that is submitted to confirm whether the information Companies House holds for your company is correct or not. If there have been changes in the Company’s Directorship, Shareholders, Capital Structuring, Trading Activities, Company’s registered address, Director’s residential or correspondence address, then Companies House need to know about it.
2) How often do I need to submit a confirmation statement?
A Confirmation Statement needs to be submitted at least once a year. The deadline date for submission of your company’s Confirmation Statement can be found by doing a search on the Companies House website.
3) Where can I find my confirmation statement filling dates?
Usually, the first confirmation statement filling date is approximately a year from the date of incorporation. However, the next filling dates can vary based on when exactly the last filling was done. To find the exact filling date you can simply go to the Companies House website and check your filling dates under company overview.
4) What changes I can report while filling the confirmation statement?
You need to report, changes in directors including their residential and correspondence addresses. Changes in shareholders. Changes in the company’s share capital and the company’s corporate structure. Changes in business activities.
5) Is it necessary to file a Confirmation Statement after each change in my company?
No, you do not need to file a Confirmation Statement immediately for every change that you make in your company. So, for example if your company’s registered address changes you would update Companies House by filing form AD01. However, you would not necessarily need to file a Confirmation Statement immediately. You just need to ensure that the Confirmation Statement is filed with the updated information before the deadline date visible on your company overview page on the Companies House website.
