How It Works

From your first setup questions to registration, we guide you through the process.

Three Simple Steps

  1. 1

    Purchase online

    Pay £450 + VAT through our secure checkout. The Companies House registration fee and your setup call are included.

  2. 2

    Talk through your setup

    We arrange your included call after payment to answer your questions, discuss your company details and explain anything you need to provide.

  3. 3

    Company registered and documents sent to you

    Once the details and identity checks are complete, we submit your application. Registration usually takes 24–48 hours, subject to Companies House processing. We then send your digital formation documents.

Do You Need an Accountant to Form a Company?

You can register directly with Companies House; an accountant is not required simply to incorporate. Our service is for people who want accountancy support with the setup, rather than handling the registration alone.

Our £450 + VAT package includes the Companies House registration fee, a setup call, HMRC setup assistance and your digital formation documents. If you are still deciding whether a limited company is right for you, talk to us before ordering.

Thinking About Moving to a Limited Company?

Many business owners start as self-employed because it is the quickest way to begin working independently.

But over time the situation often changes. You may now:

Many professionals have already considered forming a company but postponed the decision because there never seemed to be the right moment.

Before deciding, review the ongoing administration, costs and responsibilities with an accountant alongside the potential benefits.

Self-Employed vs Limited Company

Below is a simple comparison of how the two structures typically differ.

Self-Employed Limited Company
You and your business are legally the same person The company is a separate legal entity
You are personally responsible for business liabilities Your personal assets are usually separate from the business
All profit is taxed as your personal income Company profits are taxed first at Corporation Tax level
You pay tax on all profit whether you withdraw it or not You decide how much money to take from the company
One Self Assessment tax return Company accounts + corporation tax return

This structure often gives business owners more flexibility in how income is managed and distributed.

Why Many Professionals Choose a Limited Company

Separation between personal and business finances

When you work as self-employed, you and the business are legally the same person. If the business has debts or legal issues, you are personally responsible.

With a Limited Company, the business becomes a separate legal entity, meaning your personal finances are generally separate from business liabilities.

More control over how you take income

When you are self-employed, all profit is treated as your personal income. With a Limited Company:

  1. The company pays Corporation Tax on profits
  2. You decide how much money to take from the business

How you take money from a company affects its accounting and your personal tax position. Salary, dividends, benefits and director's loans have different rules. Discuss the appropriate approach with your accountant before taking money out.

A structure suitable for growing businesses

Many organisations prefer working with companies rather than individuals. Operating through a company can make it easier to:

  • work with larger clients
  • sign commercial contracts
  • hire staff or subcontractors
  • build a scalable business

For many professionals, forming a company is simply the next stage of business development.

What We Need From You

We start with a few details about your business. Your included setup call gives you time to ask questions and work through the requirements with us.

The basics
Personal codes and identity checks can seem complicated. We explain what each person needs to do and guide you through every requirement, so you do not have to work it all out alone.

If you need a UK registered office address, we can provide this separately for an additional fee.

After Your Company Is Registered

Incorporation is the start of running a company, not the end of its administration. Directors remain responsible for company records, annual accounts, confirmation statements and the company's tax obligations. See the directors' responsibilities guide for an overview.

If you will need ongoing bookkeeping or accountancy support, ask us about that alongside the formation service, so the next steps are clear before you order.

Important Update

A Note on Making Tax Digital

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax involves digital records, quarterly updates and an annual tax return through compatible software for those required to use it. Eligibility depends on your circumstances and qualifying income.

Check HMRC's current eligibility guidance and discuss your position with your accountant. Incorporating is a separate business decision, with ongoing company obligations; it should not be treated as an automatic response to Making Tax Digital.
