Do dormant companies still need to file a Confirmation Statement?

Yes. Being dormant or non-trading does not remove the requirement to file a Confirmation Statement with Companies House.

What happens if nothing has changed in my company?

You still need to file. The Confirmation Statement confirms that your company information remains accurate and up to date.

When do I need to file my Confirmation Statement?

Every company must file a Confirmation Statement at least once every 12 months. It can generally be filed within 14 days after the end of the review period, but we recommend filing it early to stay ahead of the deadline.

How much does a Confirmation Statement cost?

The current online Companies House filing fee is £50. Our service can also include preparing and submitting the statement on your behalf.

Can you update my company details at the same time?

Yes, where the relevant change can be included in the Confirmation Statement. Certain changes require separate filings with Companies House, and we can handle these separately where needed.
