What information do I need to set up a company?

When forming a private limited company in the UK, you will need to have the following:

• A unique company name that is available to register at Companies House
• A UK registered office address. Most of Companies MadeSimple formation packages includes this service to help protect your home address from appearing online. 
• Details of all the officers of your company (e.g. Directors and Shareholders). Full names, Addresses, date of births, nationalities are all example of the type of information you will be required to know. 

Having this information prepared in advance will streamline the company formation process. For more information as to what is required please see:
