Should I trade as a sole trader or a limited company?
It depends on your profits, plans and appetite for admin. A limited company keeps your personal assets separate and can be more tax‑efficient as profits grow, but it comes with more reporting. We’ll compare both using your numbers in a free consultation.
How long does it take to register a company?
Online applications to Companies House are usually processed within 24 hours once all the information and identity checks are in place.
Do directors need to verify their identity?
Yes. Under the Companies House reforms, directors and people with significant control must verify their identity. We’ll guide you through it as part of setting up.
What happens after the company is registered?
You’ll need to register for corporation tax, set up bookkeeping and decide how to pay yourself. We help with each step so nothing is missed.
