File your confirmation statement

Every company files a confirmation statement at least once every 12 months, within 14 days of its review date. Fileyear pre-fills it from the register (SIC codes, shareholders, people with significant control) and checks each director’s identity-verification personal code before you submit.

Questions directors ask

Is there a fine for a late confirmation statement?

Yes. Under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, Companies House can now fine the company: GOV.UK says up to £5,000. Not filing is also an offence, and the company can be struck off the register.

What is a Companies House personal code?

The code each director gets after verifying their identity with Companies House. The confirmation statement needs it for every director.

Can I change shareholders in the same filing?

Yes. Share transfers, SIC codes and the registered email address can all be updated in the statement.

Why not just use Companies House WebFiling?

You can. Fileyear adds the personal code check and reminders, and keeps it alongside your accounts.
