Company formations

If you decide you want to trade as a limited company, we can form your company within 24 hours.

While it is possible to form a company online, you are often left struggling with the paperwork and the need to register your company with the relevant authorities.

Similarly, some company formation agents will deal with Companies’ House then leave you to deal with HMRC.

In contrast, Bevan & Buckland will be with you all the way: our company formation service provides the complete package. We will send shareholders’ registers, directors’ registers and all the formal documentation you need straight to your door. In addition, we can register your company with HMRC and set up PAYE and VAT registration if required.

Annual compliance statement filing

Often confused with the annual accounts, the Companies’ House annual return is a separate document which lists the company’s registered office, shareholders and directors and must be filed with Companies House once a year at a different date to when the accounts need to be filed.

Although a relatively straightforward task, failure to fill out annual returns correctly and on time can lead to the directors of the firm being prosecuted.

Rather than run this risk, Bevan & Buckland can take over company secretarial duties and keep Companies House up to date on all director and shareholder changes and file your Companies House annual return.

Companies are now required by law to keep a register of Persons of Significant Control. (PSC)

We can help you deal with all of the companies house filing needs to ensure your public records are always up to date.
