Registered Office Address London

What is a registered office address?

A registered office address is a legal necessity for every company registered with Companies House in the UK. It is your company's official address and is visible to the public. This address can differ from your actual business location.

Government bodies like Companies House and HMRC will use your registered office address to send crucial correspondence, including statutory letters and legal notices. Additionally, it is a legal obligation for all companies to display their registered office address on official documents and their website.

What is the difference between a registered office and a business address?

While both are essential for your company's operations, a registered office address and a business address serve distinct purposes.

Registered Office Address:

• Legal Requirement: This is the official address of your company, which is publicly registered with Companies House.
• Official Correspondence: It is used exclusively for receiving statutory mail and legal notices from government agencies like HMRC and Companies House.
• Single Address: Every UK company must have one registered office address.

Business Address:

• Operational Address: This is the address where your company conducts its day-to-day business activities.
• General Correspondence: It is used for all other communications, including those from clients, suppliers, and utility providers.
• Multiple Addresses: Companies can have multiple business addresses, particularly if they operate in various locations.

Can They Be the Same?

Yes, your registered office address and business address can be the same, provided the address meets the criteria for a registered office. This is common for businesses operating from commercial premises.

If you need a prestigious London address for your registered office, consider our Registered Office Address Service. We offer a prime Central London location, mail scanning and forwarding, and complete privacy protection.

Can I Move My Company’s Registered Office to a Different Country?

While Companies House is the registrar for the entire UK, each jurisdiction – England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland – operates under its own legal system.

Therefore, your registered office must remain within the country where your company was incorporated. This ensures the appropriate court handles any legal proceedings involving your company.

Flexibility within England and Wales:

• If your company is registered in England, you can move your registered office to Wales and vice versa.
• However, a "Welsh company" must maintain its registered office within Wales.

Expanding Your Business Reach:

• While you cannot relocate your registered office across countries, your company can trade freely throughout the UK and overseas.
• Consider setting up additional business addresses to establish a local presence in other regions.

If you are looking for a prestigious Registered Office Address in London for your business, consider our Registered Office Address Service. We offer a prime Central London location, mail scanning and forwarding, and complete privacy protection.

Removing Home Addresses from the Public Register

Since 2018, removing specific residential addresses from the public register at Companies House has been possible. However, this currently does not apply to registered office addresses.

The Economic Crime & Corporate Transparency Act 2023 will allow individuals to request the removal of their home address details from historical filings, even if previously used as a registered office. This change is expected to come into effect within the next few years.

The most effective way to maintain privacy is to use a non-residential address for your registered office and service address from the outset. If you don't have your own commercial premises, consider using a professional address service like ours.

We provide a prestigious London address to safeguard your privacy and enhance your company's professional image.
