Frequently asked questions

What is a confirmation statement?

A confirmation statement is a yearly filing that confirms your company’s details at Companies House are correct. It covers directors, shareholders, people with significant control and the registered office. It must be filed at least once a year, even if nothing has changed [VERIFY WITH HMRC / ADAM]. AFE prepares it, checks the details with you and files it.

How do I add a new director to my company?

You need to tell Companies House about the appointment within a set period [VERIFY WITH HMRC / ADAM]. The new director’s details are filed and your company register is updated. The director also needs to have verified their identity with Companies House [VERIFY WITH HMRC / ADAM]. AFE can prepare the filing and update your records for you.

Do I need a company secretary?

Not usually. Most private limited companies are no longer required to appoint a company secretary [VERIFY WITH HMRC / ADAM]. The duties still exist, though, and fall to the directors if no one is appointed. AFE can take on the routine filings and record keeping, so your company stays compliant without the directors handling it themselves.
