UK company registration process
Establishing a company in the UK is a complex process that consists of several steps:
- Choosing a unique company name and verifying it at the UK Registration Office.
- Company registration at the UK Companies House.
- Obtaining a VAT number.
- Registering the company at the tax office.
- Registering the business as an employer.
- Opening a bank account for the company.
Any business can be registered in the UK. However, it is important to remember that one of the main conditions to establish a company in the UK is having a physical office in England.
Companies registered in the UK benefit from flexible operating conditions and extensive financial opportunities, thanks to agreements with many countries that avoid double taxation.
Among non-residents, two types of companies are most popular:
- Private Limited Company (Limited, LTD): This type allows the owner and director to be the same person (either an individual or a legal entity) and has no minimum start-up capital requirement. An LTD can also enjoy tax benefits.
- Limited Liability Partnership (LLP): This structure allows both individuals and legal entities, regardless of their residence, to be partners or managers. It requires at least two partners responsible for appointing auditors and accountants, submitting financial reports, and notifying changes in shareholders. If the LLP does not operate within the Kingdom, it is exempt from mandatory national taxes.
The economic environment in Great Britain allows for the registration of various companies. However, activities like banking, insurance, trust, or reinsurance require appropriate licenses. Regardless of the business type, a minimum authorized capital of £100 is necessary. While the registration procedure is standardized, it involves many nuances and important details. Therefore, successfully establishing a company in the UK requires significant time and effort to understand the legal framework and requirements.
