Registered Office Address in London
What is a registered office address?
A registered office address is a legal necessity for every company registered with Companies House in the UK. It is your company’s official address and is visible to the public. This address can differ from your actual business location.

Additionally, it is a legal obligation for all companies to display their registered office address on official documents and their website.

What is the difference between a registered office and a business address?
While both are essential for your company’s operations, a registered office address and a business address serve distinct purposes.
Registered Office Address:
- Legal Requirement: This is the official address of your company, which is publicly registered with Companies House.
- Official Correspondence: It is used exclusively for receiving statutory mail and legal notices from government agencies like HMRC and Companies House.
- Single Address: Every UK company must have one registered office address.
Business Address:
- Operational Address: This is the address where your company conducts its day-to-day business activities.
- General Correspondence: It is used for all other communications, including those from clients, suppliers, and utility providers.
- Multiple Addresses: Companies can have multiple business addresses, particularly if they operate in various locations.
Can They Be the Same?
Yes, your registered office address and business address can be the same, provided the address meets the criteria for a registered office. This is common for businesses operating from commercial premises.
If you need a prestigious London address for your registered office, consider our Registered Office Address Service. We offer a prime Central London location, mail scanning and forwarding, and complete privacy protection.

Can I Move My Company’s Registered Office to a Different Country?
While Companies House is the registrar for the entire UK, each jurisdiction – England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland – operates under its own legal system.
Therefore, your registered office must remain within the country where your company was incorporated. This ensures the appropriate court handles any legal proceedings involving your company.
Flexibility within England and Wales:
- If your company is registered in England, you can move your registered office to Wales and vice versa.
- However, a “Welsh company” must maintain its registered office within Wales.
Expanding Your Business Reach:
- While you cannot relocate your registered office across countries, your company can trade freely throughout the UK and overseas.
- Consider setting up additional business addresses to establish a local presence in other regions.

Removing Home Addresses from the Public Register
Since 2018, removing specific residential addresses from the public register at Companies House has been possible. However, this currently does not apply to registered office addresses.
The Economic Crime & Corporate Transparency Act 2023 will allow individuals to request the removal of their home address details from historical filings, even if previously used as a registered office. This change is expected to come into effect within the next few years.
The most effective way to maintain privacy is to use a non-residential address for your registered office and service address from the outset. If you don’t have your own commercial premises, consider using a professional address service like ours.

When incorporating a new company there is some key information required in order to complete the application. It’s relatively straightforward, personal details are required such as full name, contact information and address details for the company itself. A new limited company formation application also requires a registered office address for the company, a director and a shareholder holding at least one share. If you wish to keep your details private you can use our professional address services which are included with some packages. This is a good way to keep your business or personal director’s address private.
When you register a company with Your First Choice Formation we aim to keep the process as simple as possible. No documentation is required for the company application form and in most instances it can be completed in approximately 5-10 minutes. Once the first choice formation application form is submitted an invitation from Credas (UK Government Approved Third Party Partner) that will ask you to upload or take a photo of your identity documents online through a secure portal.
For a client who is registering a new limited company, you will first need to ensure that the name you want is available. You can use our company name search facility on our website to check this prior to proceeding. For a private limited company the name will also need to end with “Limited” or “Ltd”, or, if you are registering a company in Wales then the company will need to end with (“Cyfyngedig” or “Cyf”).
Once we incorporate your company at Companies House and your company has been approved, your company registration process has been completed. Part of the completion process will include electronic copies of your company incorporation certificate with your unique company number, share certificates (Ltd Companies) and memorandum and articles of association sent to you instantly via email. If you also select a package or product that contains printed documents these will be sent to you quickly within a day or two.
When you register a new limited company online, you will be asked to provide correspondence address details for all directors. You can choose to publish your address or for the majority of our clients, they choose to have a layer of privacy through the use of our director’s privacy address. This enables you to keep your address on public record and helps to prevent companies, agencies and the general public from obtaining your contact information.
All UK Ltd companies are legally required to appoint at least one director who is over the age of 16. A company director has many legal responsibilities and reporting duties, they are legally responsible for the running of the company. Duties include and are not limited to, filing of accounts, filing documents at Companies House and keeping the company in good standing. A director can actually be another company, however at least one of the directors must be a person as opposed to a “legal entity”.
Setting up a company is a complex, time-consuming process that requires filing different forms of paperwork in compliance with regulatory requirements. However, working with company incorporation agents saves you the time and hassle of handling the process yourself.
Your First Choice Formation provides adequate guidance on the suitable corporation structure for your business idea and handles and files the paperwork. And because of our longstanding relationship with Companies House and other service providers, you benefit from negotiated incorporation rates and cashback for opening your business account with our selected partners.
Once your application is completed, we will set up your company within 3-6 working hours, depending on companies house workload on the day. You will receive a notification telling you that your application has been approved. Digital copies of your company documents in PDF format will be sent to your email address. Once this is completed, you can immediately begin trading with your company.
