VAT Registration
Allow our highly trained staff to handle the formalities of your VAT registration.
If your turnover is expected to exceed £85,000 in the next 12 months, it is a legal requirement to register for VAT, unless the supplies are exempt.
If your turnover is not expected to exceed £85,000, there are a number of reasons why many companies choose to register for VAT voluntarily. For example:
- The ability to claim back VAT on goods and services purchased by the company.
- Raise the corporate image of the company, by appearing to be bigger than you actually are.
- Enable deals with suppliers and customers who are not willing to deal with companies that are not VAT registered.
The VAT registration process explained
As soon as your company is incorporated, we will send you a questionnaire by email, asking for some additional information necessary to complete your VAT registration application with HMRC.
We will then apply for your VAT registration online. This process can take up to 30 days.
Once your VAT registration has been approved, we will send your VAT Registration Number to you by email. Your VAT Registration Certificate will be sent to you by post by HMRC.

A Limited Liability Partnership is the most popular incorporated business structure amongst industry professionals like accountants and solicitors who most often operate as partnerships. The added benefit of an LLP over a traditional partnership, however, is the limited lability provided to each member, or partner.
At a cost of just £29.99 plus VAT, our LLP package offers excellent value and provides online company set up in 3 to 6 working hours, digital and printed LLP incorporation documents and a free draft LLP Agreement. There is no need to use an LLP Agreement, but many partnerships prefer to have one drawn up, and it really is essential if you plan to divide profits between members in any way other than equally.
Once your LLP has been approved by Companies House, we will issue a draft LLP Agreement by email. You can then edit this document with the relevant details and email it back to us. We will then send 2 printed copies of the LLP Agreement to you by first class post.

If you decide you would like your LLP to have a formal Agreement, return your completed draft to us by email. We will then prepare two printed copies for you and send them to you by 1st class post.
It is not a legal requirement to have a formal LLP Agreement; however, it is required if you need to divide the share of profits and capital other than equally.

Your company is 10 times less likely to be rejected
We are the only company formation agents who will check your new company registration orders for mistakes and omissions - greatly reducing the chances of rejection by Companies House.
Less chance of rejection
By checking applications for errors, we dramatically reduce the average rejection rate of new company applications in the UK, from 10%, to just 1%.
What’s more, if a company is rejected, we will fix the problem and re-submit the application.
Perfect documents
If we didn’t check our clients’ applications, in most cases the company documents would not be properly presented.
This is due to capitalisation problems and grammatical errors being transferred to the finished company documents.
...and it's free!
We review our clients' company applications, and handle the rejections free of charge.
Our aim is to achieve customer service excellence by delivering new companies with perfectly presented documents to our customers, without undue stress or delay.
