Confirmation Statement (Form CS01) filing

A confirmation statement is due 14 days after the anniversary of your company incorporation or the date you filed the last confirmation statement.

If you do not know when your confirmation statement is due, you can check it on Companies House by searching your company’s name on Companies House service. If you are still not sure of the date, please feel free to contact us for assistance.

A confirmation statement review period refers to the period of time that the confirmation statement covers. If your company was recently incorporated, the review period lasts 12 months after the incorporation date. For companies that have been formed for over a year, the review period is 12 months after the last confirmation statement submission.

Your confirmation statement must be submitted to Companies House within 14 days of your review period. Even if nothing has changed in your company during the review period, you must still submit a confirmation statement.

A confirmation statement allows you to update the following details with Companies House:

• SIC codes (principal business activities)
• Changes in shareholders since the last confirmation statement
• Changes to the statement of capital since the last confirmation statement
• Trading status of shares
• Exemption from maintaining a People with Significant Control (PSC) register

Important Note: 

Some information cannot be updated through a confirmation statement including:

• Registered office address, 
• Changes in company officers (directors and secretaries) 
• Updates to persons with significant control 

These updates must be reported separately to Companies House using the appropriate forms before submitting the confirmation statement. Our team of experts can take care of these filings for you at an additional charge – simply get in touch!

If you receive a letter from Companies House telling you that “your confirmation statement is due for filing”, then you should arrange for your company to file a confirmation statement as soon as possible. 

If you have received a reminder from Companies House, and you believe this was sent by mistake, you should check your company information using Companies House service to ensure that your confirmation statement has been filed, as there may have been a problem with your filing.
