New Companies House “Mandatory Identity Verification Process” For Company Directors – Act Soon To Help Us Keep Filing

Companies House will soon require Company directors to verify their identity to file confirmation statements.

The new verification process will roll out between November 2025 and Autumn 2026, affecting:

  • All Company directors
  • People with significant control, and
  • Anyone filing on behalf of a company.

What this means: 

  • You need to prove who you are to set up, run, own or control a company in the UK.
  • New appointments will be required to verify their identity from November 2025
  • Existing directors will have until Autumn 2026 to complete their verification. 
  • We will not be able to file annual confirmation statements on your behalf until you have completed the verification process.

 Once you complete the process, you will receive a personal code from Companies House.  Please send this code to legal@sienna-buffalo-255343.hostingersite.com so that we can continue to file on your behalf.
