Registered Office Service
Privacy Protection Registered Office Service
Every UK limited company must have a registered office address. This address appears on the public record at Companies House and is where official correspondence is sent.
Our Registered Office Service allows you to use our address for Companies House and HMRC correspondence. All official mail is scanned and forwarded to you promptly.
This service is not a trading address and must not be represented as such.
Why a Registered Office Address Matters
Your registered office address is a legal requirement. It is publicly visible and used for:
- Companies House filing reminders
- Confirmation statements
- Corporation tax correspondence
- Legal notices
- Strike-off warnings
Missing official mail can result in penalties, company dissolution, or director liability.
By using our Registered Office Service
- Keeps your home address off the public record
- Centralised handling of statutory mail
- Immediate scanning and forwarding
- Deadline awareness
- Professional compliance oversight
- No unwanted visitors at your front door
- No increase in junk mail

Important Information: Our Registered Office Service is provided for the limited purpose of receiving official statutory correspondence addressed to the company. The service does not constitute the provision of trading premises, business facilities, company administration services, or company secretarial management unless separately agreed in writing. The directors remain responsible for:
-
Compliance with the Companies Act 2006
-
Maintenance of statutory records
-
Timely filing of confirmation statements, accounts and other required documents
-
Ensuring that Companies House records remain accurate
Our role is limited to receiving and forwarding statutory correspondence. Receipt and forwarding of mail does not transfer statutory or legal responsibility from the directors to us. As a regulated practice, we are required to comply with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 and related professional obligations. The provision and continuation of this service is therefore subject to satisfactory completion of identity verification and ongoing compliance procedures. We reserve the right to decline or withdraw this service where regulatory requirements are not met, where the address is misused, or where continuing to act would be inconsistent with our professional or regulatory obligations. This service is provided subject to our engagement terms and conditions.
