1. Particular Page

Suppose you want to change your company name. You can do this now, but don’t forget to click the green button to check if the name is available or not.
You can also change jurisdiction to Scotland. Again, it’s your choice, but remember if you do so, your Register office Address need to be in Scotland. Most companies prefer to have jurisdiction and Register Office Address in England & Wales.

 

Choose your SIC – code.

 

The SIC Code is your business activity (means what kind of business you have). You need to select at least one SIC code but can choose up to four.

Click on the arrow for a category. For example, if you select All, it will appear a filter, and you can type a keyword, i.e., takeaway.

You have categories from A – U to select from; click on one of them and select your code.

When you selected a SIC – Code, it will show on the right side with a red cross; this is correct because you should be able to remove it if you chose the wrong one.

*SIC Code for Dormant company is 99999.

I have decided to open a shop to sell juice and fruits and have chosen four different SIC – Codes, as you can see below.

Add an officer

 

We will have a Limited by Share company with two people as shareholder’s and director’s, so we press person.

 

Position:

 

You will need to choose the different appointments that this officer will hold at the company from the below list:

• Director
• Shareholder
• Secretary
• PSC

Selecting the appointments will update the other sections on the page to enter the necessary details related to the specific appointment. You don’t need to choose Secretary if you don’t want to. It’s only a requirement for a Public Limited Company (PLC).

Please fill in the details for the first officer:

 

Don’t forget to fill in your home address; if you have chosen our Officer Address Service, your home address will not appear in public.

 

Nature of Control

 

This section will only be present if the officer will hold a “Shareholder” appointment at the company.

 

We will have two shareholders in this company, and they will be equal. I will only fill the top part (we will not fill in the part for Firm or Trust).

*A trust or firm controls your company without ‘legal personality. This condition will only apply in limited circumstances.

If the trust or firm meets any nature of control, you’ll need to record all trustees or members/partners of the firm as PSCs of your company.

 

Ownership of Shares

 

You can choose between:

N/A
More than 25% but not more than 50%
More than 50% but less than 75%
75% or more
*Because we are equal, I will choose:
More than 50% but less than 75%., and this means that each person owns 50% of the company.

 

Voting Rights:

 

You can choose between: N/A More than 25% but not more than 50% More than 50% but less than 75% 75% or more

Appoint or remove the majority of the board of directors. No Yes I will choose yes for the same reason as above. Note: The customer must choose either the first three options or the last option.

 

Addressing

 

The company director will have mail sent to him from HMRC and Companies House as well.
Observe: We only scan mail to the director’s email address; however, we need to post some mail, i.e., if we got something from HMRC or Companies House that we can’t scan. Click on “Choose Forwarding Address”.

 

Shareholding

 

The customer will need to enter the details below for each shareholding that they wish to assign to the officer:

Class: This is the specific class of the shareholding; multiple shareholders can hold the same class (you can choose class A, B, C and D, A is the most common (if you are not sure you need to seek professional advice).

Price: This is the price of each share of this class that the customer assigns to the shareholder.

currency: This is the currency of the shares of this class that the customer is assigning to the shareholder.

Particulars: These are the particulars of the class that the customer is assigning to the shareholder.

You can add multiple shareholdings to the same shareholder using the “Add Holding” button (if you want both A and B shares).

You can have a different class of shares, which depends on what kind of company you are going to have. If you are unsure of what to do, you need to seek professional advice.

You can have as little as one share as a shareholder. Company shares are in the form of cash, which is paid into the company’s bank account. Do never put too many shares into your company; you can increase shares later, but you can't reduce them.
 

 

Nancy Smith is a shareholder, director and a Person with Significant Control, and holds one share with the amount of £1.

 

We will add the second officer in the company, which will be equal as well.

Press person again and repeat the same procedure you did for the first officer.

 

After you have created the second officer, check that everything is okay; if something is incorrect, please click on the green button to edit, and change the details. Press next until to the end, and then save.

 

If you at this stage have decided to be the only officer in the company, you can remove one officer.

 

5. Legal Documents

 

The article of association is a document that, along with the memorandum of association, forms the company’s constitution, defines the responsibilities of the directors, the kind of business to be undertaken. If you do not have any specific rules in your company, you can choose the FREE Generic Limited by Shares Article. Please select your article.

 

If you supply your own bespoke custom articles, you might need to seek professional advice and upload it to the application.

I will select Tide Bank. This option is your choice; you don’t need to select anything here if you don’t want to.
