HELPFUL INFORMATION
Understand confirmation statement before you buy.
Plain-English guidance for customers who want more detail. The package scope and price shown above remain the commercial terms for this service.
What a confirmation statement actually does+
A confirmation statement is the annual check that the public information Companies House holds about your company is correct. It replaced the annual return in 2016, although many directors still use the old name. The filing confirms information such as the registered office, directors, people with significant control, business activity, shareholders and share capital.
It is not simply a declaration that nothing has changed. If something is wrong, some details can be corrected through the confirmation statement and others must be updated using a separate Companies House form before or alongside it. That distinction matters because confirming an inaccurate record can create avoidable compliance problems later.
Deadline and what happens if you miss it+
Every company has a review period, normally 12 months from incorporation or from the date of its last confirmation statement. You must file within 14 days after that review period ends. You can file earlier, but doing so starts a new 12-month review period from the filing date.
Companies House does not currently charge an automatic late-filing penalty for a confirmation statement in the same way it does for late accounts. However, failing to file is still a criminal offence by the company and its officers. Companies House can begin strike-off action, which may lead to the company being removed from the register. An overdue filing can also concern banks, lenders, suppliers and potential investors who check the public record.
Information you need to confirm+
We need the company number and authentication code, plus confirmation of the registered office and the email address Companies House holds for the company. We check the directors and any company secretary, the standard industrial classification or SIC code, the statement of capital, shareholder information and the register of people with significant control.
Tell us about changes rather than assuming Companies House already knows. A director appointment, a new registered office, a share transfer or a change in control may require another filing. If the changes are more involved than this fixed-price package allows, we will explain the work and quote before starting it.
Confirmation statement versus annual accounts+
These are separate filings with separate deadlines. The confirmation statement checks the company's legal and ownership information. Annual accounts report its financial position and, depending on the filing format, its financial performance for an accounting period.
A dormant company normally still files both. Filing the accounts does not satisfy the confirmation statement requirement, and filing a confirmation statement does not deal with the accounts or Corporation Tax. This package covers only the confirmation statement unless another service is purchased.

Clear scope. No surprise bills.
If your job falls outside the stated scope, we will explain why and agree a new quote before work starts.
What happens if I miss the deadline?+
There is no standard automatic late fee, but the company and its officers are in breach of their filing duty. Companies House may start strike-off action. We recommend filing as soon as possible.
Can you file if nothing has changed?+
Yes. Most confirmation statements simply confirm the existing record after it has been checked.
Are share changes included?+
Simple confirmation of the existing share position is included. Preparing or correcting allotments, transfers, capital changes or complex PSC updates is outside the flat fee.
Is the Companies House fee included?+
Yes. The applicable Companies House confirmation statement fee is included in the package price.
