EXTREME UK Confirmation Statement — Keep Your LTD in Good Standing Every Year
Every UK company must confirm its details with Companies House at least once every 12 months. We check your details against the register, file your confirmation statement and remind you next year — so a missed filing never puts your LTD at risk.
What Is a UK Confirmation Statement?
A confirmation statement is an annual filing with Companies House confirming that your company’s public details — directors, shareholders, registered office address and share capital — are current and correct. Every UK company must file one at least once every 12 months, within its review period.
A filing fee is payable to Companies House with the statement — we handle that inside our service. Missing the deadline risks penalties, and if the filing keeps being missed, the company can be struck off the register. Note that this is separate from your annual accounts and your corporation tax return: three different filings with different deadlines, all required.
Who Needs a Confirmation Statement Filed?
Short answer: every UK LTD. In practice, these are the owners who come to us:
- Active trading UK LTDs — the yearly filing is mandatory for every company on the register.
- Dormant companies — still required to file, even with no trading activity.
- Non-resident owners of a UK LTD — managing Companies House deadlines from abroad is exactly the friction we remove. See our UK LTD Formation service if the company itself is not formed yet.
- Companies whose details changed during the year — directors, shareholders, registered office or share capital changes are confirmed in the same filing.
- Owners who want one place handling it all — confirmation statement, annual accounts support and tax, tracked together year after year.

Confirmation Statement vs. Annual Accounts vs. Corporation Tax Return
Three different UK filings that founders constantly mix up — each has its own authority, its own deadline and its own penalty regime:
- Confirmation Statement (Companies House) — confirms your company details are current: directors, shareholders, registered office, share capital. Filed at least once every 12 months. This is the page you are on.
- Annual Accounts (Companies House) — the financial statements of your company’s performance for the year. A separate filing with its own deadline.
- Corporation Tax Return (HMRC) — the tax return on your company’s profits, filed with HMRC — not Companies House. See our Corporate Tax Returns service.
If any of your underlying details changed — a new director, a new address, a change in shareholding — those changes are confirmed in the confirmation statement itself, and can be formally updated any time through our Company Amendments service.
UK Confirmation Statement — Frequently Asked Questions
What if my company details changed during the year?
They are confirmed or updated in the same confirmation statement filing. Tell us what changed — directors, shareholders, registered office or share capital — and we make sure the register reflects it. Formal changes mid-year can also be handled through our company amendments service.
What happens if I file the confirmation statement late?
Penalties can apply, and if the filing keeps being missed, Companies House can move to strike the company off the register. It is one of the simplest filings a UK company has — there is no good reason to let it go late.
Is the confirmation statement the same as annual accounts?
No. The confirmation statement confirms your company details (directors, shareholders, registered office, share capital); annual accounts are financial statements of the company’s performance. They are separate filings with different deadlines, and both are required.
Do dormant companies still have to file a confirmation statement?
Yes. A dormant company still exists on the Companies House register and must file its confirmation statement at least once every 12 months, just like a trading company.
How long does filing the confirmation statement take?
The filing itself is quick once submitted. What takes time is getting your details checked and correct first. Send us your company details and we move immediately.
How much does your confirmation statement service cost?
We do not list prices here because the Companies House fee and our service fee are quoted together per case. Message us on WhatsApp with your company name and number and we will share the exact price.
