Registering a limited company in the UK offers business owners certain privileges. You are provided with legal protection to prevent another business from trading with your brand name together with favourable tax advantages.
Our experienced professionals can perform relevant checks and offer advice with regard to your limited company setup including your trade name and the most beneficial company formats for your business.
The three options are:
Private limited companies registered in the UK are limited by shares. This means directors and shareholders are not personally responsible for debts owed by the company.
If the company were to go out of business, debts are paid for by assets that belong to the company and not the personal assets of its directors and shareholders. The only loss shareholders suffer is the share of the capital they have invested in the company.
A company limited by guarantee is entitled to the same privileges as a limited company. The only difference is that shares in the company are owned by guarantors (usually a company or private investors) rather than individuals that run the company.
Should the business fall into liquidation, the guarantors contribute an agreed amount to pay off any debts owed by the LBG. Non-profit organisations typically structure the company as an LBG.
Limited Liability Partnerships are favoured by professionals where two or more parties enter a contractual arrangement to run a business. Typical examples are solicitors, accountants and GPs.
The partners of a firm share the profits and pay corporate tax on taxable revenue yielded by the company. However, partners are not personally liable for any debts owed by the company.
Registering a limited company in the UK means directors are obligated to provide a service address where they can receive official correspondence from Companies House and HMRC. Service addresses registered with UK authorities are available online and readily available to the general public.
Our company formation service can also provide you with a bona fide registered office address. This is beneficial to directors that prefer to keep the whereabouts of their private residence out of the public domain.
As part of our limited company set-up service, we scan the official documents and send them directly to your mobile phone. Providing you supply the relevant information before 1 pm and Companies House does not have a backlog, we can register and send your official document on the same day.
We also register your company with HMRC. All your official documents are stored on our secure servers where they can be accessed from any part of the world on your mobile device.
