FAQ
What information needs to be included in a confirmation statement?
A confirmation statement must include an update on the following company details, confirming that they are accurate:
- Company name and registration number
- Registered office address
- Directors’ details
- People with Significant Control (PSC) details
- Shareholder information (for companies with shares)
- Statement of capital (if applicable)
- SIC codes (business activity classification)
If any of this information has changed, updates must be made before or when filing the confirmation statement.
Can I file my confirmation statement early, or do I need to wait for the due date?
Yes, you can file your confirmation statement early – you don’t need to wait for the due date. Your next filing due date will be within 12 months from the new filing date.
What happens if my confirmation statement is overdue?
It is important to file your confirmation statement on time. If you are late, the Companies House may issue warnings and could eventually strike off your company from the register.
Can I update my company information when filing a confirmation statement?
Yes, this is exactly the time to do it – you can update your company information when filing a confirmation statement.
How long does it take for Companies House to process a confirmation statement?
Companies House typically processes an electronically filed confirmation statement within 24 hours. If you file a paper form by post, it can take up to 2 weeks, depending on workload and delivery times.
When is my first confirmation statement due after company formation?
Your first confirmation statement is due in 12 months and 14 days after your company registration.
How do I amend a confirmation statement after it's been filed?
To amend your confirmation statement, you will need to submit it again with the correct information together with RP04 form (Rectification of a Document) to explain the correction.
What's the difference between a confirmation statement and an annual return?
A confirmation statement is an updated version of annual return. It serves the same purpose of updating Companies House with a company's key details, but the difference is that a confirmation statement allows companies to simply confirm existing information is accurate, while for annual return you would need to resubmit all the details all over again even if no changes occurred.
