From November 2025, identity verification with Companies House became a legal requirement for all company directors and persons with significant control (PSCs) in the UK. Introduced under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023, the new rules are designed to improve the accuracy of the companies register and crack down on fraud and economic crime. Failing to verify on time can result in your company being unable to file with Companies House, as well as potential financial penalties.

As a registered Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP), we are authorised by Companies House to carry out identity verification on your behalf. This means you don’t need to work through the process yourself — we handle the checks, meet the required standard of identity assurance, and ensure your verification is completed correctly and on time.

Whether you’re a newly appointed director who needs to verify before taking up your role, or an existing director approaching your confirmation statement deadline, we make the process as straightforward as possible. Get in touch and we’ll let you know exactly what you need to provide and take care of the rest.
