| Business Start-Up: Legal Requirements | | |
A private company limited by shares in England and Wales must have at least one director, one shareholder, and may have a secretary.
You need at least one person to form this type of company. If there is only one director, and that director is a natural person in your company, that director can also act as the secretary.
A company must have at least one director who is a natural person.
You can register a sole director' company, if you are familiar with the secretaries duties and responsibilities, because all of them belongs to a sole director.
The directors and secretary of your company can also be shareholders.
The Companies Act imposes no restriction on the minimum age of company directors. However Companies House will actively discourage the appointment of anyone under the age of 16 from taking up a company directorship on the grounds that the individuals concerned may not fully understand the legal liabilities that go with the position and for the most part will not have the experience necessary to perform the duties of a company director.
Under the Companies Act 2006, there is no restriction on any or all of the members/shareholders being from an overseas country (i.e. outside the United Kingdom in terms of residency, domicile, citizenship, place of incorporation or all or any of those concepts).
There is no requirement for the officers of your company to be UK citizens or residents, nor for them to hold valid work permits.
Owning, or being an officer of a UK company does not, however, grant you any right to live or work in the UK if you are a foreign national.
Your company must have a registered office address within England, Wales or Scotland; this is the official address of your company and will be on the public record as such.
Your company must hold its official company documents at its registered office address (its register of shareholders, and its constitutional documents).
So long as you maintain a registered office address in England, Wales or Scotland, you can conduct your business from any place in the world: you do not have to run your business from your registered office address.

It is also possible to set up in business as a Public Limited Company (PLC) and as a Co-operative, but only very few start ups meet the criteria to use either of these. There are basically two ways of obtaining a Limited Liability Company through which to trade. Acquiring a company which has already been incorporated but is not trading (known as "dormant company" and commonly referred to as buying a "ready-made company"), or alternatively setting-up a new limited company from scratch.

| General Advantages Of UK Limited Liability Companies:
1. Liability is, in the vast majority of cases, strictly limited to the investments made by the shareholders.
2. Company Officers are not personally liable for their actions unless, there is a clear and serious breach of their fiduciary duty.
3. Despite the limited liability, such entities often benefit from greater prestige than their sole proprietorship or partnership counterparts. The reason is because such an enterprise normally requires more planning and thus is deemed more credible.
4. They often benefit from significant tax advantages. In fact, many countries around the world give exclusive tax incentives to this type of entity.
5. The rights of shareholders are normally clearly defined and protected. Promotes good record keeping.
6. Corporate taxes only become payable after the end of the financial year. This means that money that would otherwise be taxed on a monthly or quarterly basis, is available to earn further money before the final payment of tax.
7. You must appoint a minimum of One Director and One Shareholder.
8. Directors can be corporate bodies or private individuals.
9. A Director can be of any nationality.
10. All companies must appoint a company Secretary. A Secretary can be of any nationality.

Off-The-Shelf Companies: do you want to incorporate your business in England, Wales or Scotland or to transfer your activity to a new company and at the same time don't you want or cannot wait? Ready-Made Company is the answer. A ready made company is a private limited company that has already been incorporated as a general commercial company and is ready to trade immediately. Readymade company is ideal, if you need purchase house, flat or any other real estate in the United Kingdom and you are foreigner or you can start your new business immediately.

Off-the-shelf and ready-made are companies which have been incorporated by Coddan in the past yet have not engaged in any business activities since their registration. Generally, aged companies are more valuable than new companies.

Applying online to Coddan is easy, quicki, chep and reliable and makes the entire application process smoother for you and us. Follow the 1-step approach to searching and registering your company with Companies House at the same-day, without the need for extensive paperwork; all of it is covered by Coddan (click on the Online Order Forms icon). Our e-formation service eliminates the need to complete Forms 288a (to appoint the directors and secretary), Form 288b, Form 288c, or Form 287, making the process of companies incorporation even easier and quicker.
You will be registered (incorporated) as the founding director and shareholder of the company, this means that you can open your doors for equity or debt financing from other sources since the company is actually registered in a real persons name who is responsible for the operations of the company.
All companies must have officers. This means at least one director and a company secretary for a private limited company, and at least two directors and a company secretary for a public limited company. Section 283(1) of the Act says every company must have a secretary. Section 283(2) states that a sole director cannot also be the secretary. Generally it is up to the members to appoint the people they believe will run the company well on their behalf. The only restrictions that prevent anyone becoming a director are: the person must not have been disqualified by a court from acting as a company director (unless he or she has been given leave (permission) to act by a court for a particular company); the person must not be an undischarged bankrupt (except with leave of the court); in Scotland, anybody under the age of 16; and for a PLC or their subsidiaries, anybody over the age of 70 unless specifically approved by a general meeting of the company.
Not only is you application processed faster, it is much more accurate and you can even modify any of the previously entered details; and it is very economical too. Other agents form companies using agent director then resign and transfer the shares to your directors. The presence of these agent directors and shareholders leads to confusion and delay when opening bank accounts, or anything involving credit transactions for your company like opening a merchant account or lease arrangements.
 ECONOMY UK LTD registration package* - £117.00 This package has all the features of our E-Quick package but also has the provision of having your company prepaid registered office address. This service (Our Most Popular Plan for EU Residents) is particularly useful for smaller companies, such as those being run by a sole director from home, where a separate address for service of routine paperwork from authorities such as Companies House and the Inland Revenue may be required for various reasons. *The Economy Package is ideal for small and medium businesses who opt to use our registered address in London, Liverpool, Manchester, Edinburgh or Glasgow, and who have a partner who will be appoint as company secretary.
All England and Scotland registered companies are legally required to have a registered office address. It is the address of a company to which Companies House letters and reminders will be sent. The registered office address can be anywhere in England and Wales (or Scotland if your company is registered there). The registered office address must always be an effective address for delivering documents to the company, and to avoid delays it is important that all correspondence sent to this address is dealt with promptly.
Our registered office address will be recorded at Companies House and all official mail will be forwarded to your designated address. If you want to be a Scottish registered company and governed by Scottish law then you will need a registered address in Scotland. We can provide you with a prestigious address in Edinburgh. For British companies owned by overseas residents it is a legal requirement to have a local registered address where official government mail can send. Please note that this address SHOULD NOT be used for any trading purposes or general correspondence, or for any form of advertising. The address is only to be used to comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 1985 in relation to official mail and documents.
Please note registered office address is not to be used for general correspondence; our trade mail service is available for this purpose. The registered office address will also be used by the UK tax authorities, and other government departments, to contact the company. In the event the company is involved in any legal action official papers will often be served at the registered office address.
Does the registered office address have to be my main trading address? No, you can use one address as your trading address and another address for your registered office. If you are trading from home you may want to consider using one of Coddan prestigious addresses as your registered office and using a local PO Box for general correspondence.
The company stationery, including the letterhead, should contain the company's official name, as registered with Companies House; the company's registered office address; the registration number or license number; the VAT registration number (if any); and the place of registration, i.e. England & Wales or Scotland.
