Whatever the reason for your closure – if you’ve not traded for 3 months. We’ll fill out all the relevant paperwork and file it with Companies House, saving you a lot of time and effort. All you’ll need to do is sign your documents when we send them over to you.

It usually takes up to 3-6 working hours to form a limited company, although it can take up to 24 hours, dependent on Companies House workload on the day.
Can I get an update on when my company will be formed?
Once your application has been submitted to Companies House, we’re unable to get updates of any progress until your company is successfully incorporated or rejected.
We’ll notify you once your company is incorporated so you can log in to your account to retrieve your documents and authentication code.
If your company is rejected, we’ll text and email you to let you know so you can log in to your account to see the rejection reason. One of our customer care team will also try to contact you to help successfully incorporate your company.
