UK Company Setup

More than simply registering a company online.

The Companies House incorporation fee is included.

Want us to take care of the main UK requirements together?

Our complete setup can include:

  • UK limited company formation

You get the company, a UK address and a UK accountant you can come back to.

UK Registered Office

£195 + VAT per year

Need a UK address for your company?

For eligible international clients, we can provide our Newcastle upon Tyne address as your registered office and receive official Companies House and HMRC correspondence on your behalf.

Companies House Identity Verification

£75 per person

Friendly Assist Accountancy is a registered Companies House Authorised Corporate Service Provider.

For eligible international directors and business owners, identity verification can normally be completed remotely, subject to satisfactory identification and verification checks.

UK VAT Registration

From £295 + VAT

An overseas business can have UK VAT obligations even without forming a UK company.

We can review your circumstances and, where appropriate, prepare and submit your UK VAT registration to HMRC.

More complicated international VAT arrangements will be quoted separately.

Ongoing UK Company Accounting

From £125 + VAT per month

Already have a UK company or want us to continue looking after the one we establish for you?

We can become your UK accounting contact and take care of annual accounts, Corporation Tax, Companies House filings and routine UK compliance.

Bookkeeping, VAT, payroll and additional international tax work can be added where required.

Not Sure What You Need?

You do not need to understand the UK system before contacting us.

Tell us where you are based, what your business does and what you want to do in the UK. We can establish which services are relevant and which ones you do not need.

If you are moving to or from the UK personally, have overseas income or need help with UK tax residence, our International and Expat Accounting Services may be more appropriate.

One UK Contact, Wherever You Are

Friendly Assist Accountancy is an AAT Licensed Accountancy Practice based in Newcastle upon Tyne and a registered Companies House Authorised Corporate Service Provider.

We work remotely with UK and international clients, so you do not need to travel to the UK simply because your company is here.
