Service Address

£26.00 + VAT

In addition to a registered office address, UK government agencies, such as Companies House and HMRC, require a service address to be provided by the following individuals: company officers (directors and secretaries); members of LLPs; subscribers (first shareholders or guarantors who become members during the company registration process); and ‘People with Significant Control’ (PSCs).

This address serves as a statutory correspondence address for the receipt of official government mail. Service address details are placed on public record, so many people avoid using their home address for this purpose.

Please note: The purchase of this service entitles you to use our address for one officer only. If you wish to use this address for multiple officers, the service should be purchased for each officer.
