RE: Confirmation statement5 Jun 2026 18:50
This means the company has until June 19, 2026, to file an annual snapshot of its corporate details (the Confirmation Statement). Additionally, under recent UK corporate laws, all company directors must independently verify their identities with Companies House and provide their personal verification codes.
Key Details and Requirements Confirmation Statement:
This is an annual filing. It does not report financial performance; rather, it confirms that basic company information—such as the registered office address, directors, and shareholders—is up to date on the public register.
Identity Verification (IDV): Brought in by the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, this requirement means directors must prove who they are. This is done using GOV.UK One Login to link their identity to their directorships.
The Interconnection: Identity verification is now a legal prerequisite for filing. If the directors of the company have not completed their identity verification, the company will not be able to file its Confirmation Statement.
Consequences of Non-Compliance: Failure to complete both requirements by the deadline can result in financial penalties, criminal prosecution, or the company being struck off the Companies House register. Unverified directors may also face disqualification.If you are a director or stakeholder, you must complete the ID verification as soon as possible so that the company secretary or filing agent can successfully process your Confirmation Statement.
