Confirmation Statement Support for Limited Companies
Every limited company in the UK must file a Confirmation Statement with Companies House — even if nothing has changed during the year.
While the filing itself may seem simple, errors or missed deadlines can cause unnecessary problems, including fines or company records becoming inaccurate.
At Atreus Accountants, we handle Confirmation Statements as part of your wider compliance, ensuring everything is submitted correctly and on time — without stress or last-minute chasing.
What Is a Confirmation Statement?
A Confirmation Statement is a yearly submission to Companies House that confirms your company’s key details, including:
-
Registered office address
-
Directors and shareholders
-
Share structure
-
People with Significant Control (PSC)
-
SIC codes
It confirms that the information Companies House holds about your company is accurate and up to date.
Who Needs to File a Confirmation Statement?
All limited companies and LLPs registered in the UK must file a Confirmation Statement at least once every 12 months.
This applies even if:
-
There have been no changes during the year
-
The company has not traded
-
The business is small or dormant
The responsibility for filing ultimately sits with the directors, even if an accountant handles the submission.
Why Accuracy Matters
Although Confirmation Statements don’t include financial figures, mistakes can still cause issues, such as:
-
Incorrect public company records
-
Problems when opening bank accounts or applying for finance
-
Delays or complications with other filings
We ensure details are reviewed properly before submission, rather than simply “rubber-stamping” information.
