Required Information to Form a Company

You must provide a registered office address to set up a limited company or LLP with Companies House. It must be a physical postal address - you cannot use a PO Box number. The registered office address will be placed on public record and it must be displayed on all company stationery and websites.

You must provide Companies House with your new company's business activity. This is done by choosing a SIC code (Standard Industrial Classification code) which describes and classifies business activities.

Our online company formation process includes a SIC code search facility, however, you may wish to find your company's SIC code prior to starting your order, by having a look at the SIC code list.
