UK company registration
Structure. Identity. Address. Filing.

International founders entering the UK

Structure and UK footprint are known
Which UK presence
matches the plan?
A new company, LLP and overseas-company establishment create different ownership and reporting outcomes.
Private limited company
A separate UK entity for contracts, ownership and growth.
LLP
A partnership form whose legal and tax fit should be reviewed for the members.
UK establishment
A branch-style registration can fit an overseas company establishing a UK place of business.
Identity and control
Directors and people with significant control must follow the current verification rollout.
UK Registration
Structure. Identity. Address. Filing.
A UK company is not a UK visa.
Formation does not itself give a founder the right to work, tax residence, banking or regulated permissions.
