What is a Confirmation Statement?

A confirmation statement, often referred to as an annual return, is a vital document that must be submitted to Companies House. This document updates your company's key details, including information about directors, shareholders, and your registered office address. Understanding what a confirmation statement involves is crucial for maintaining your company's legal standing.

Legally, a company must file a confirmation statement every year, even if none of the company’s information has changed or if the company is dormant.

Confirmation statement submissions must be filed promptly. Failure to file confirmation statements will lead to the company getting penalised or struck off the register.
