Frequently asked questions

How long will it take you to register my new company?

We will register your new company within 3 to 6 hours (typically)of submitting your online application at our Website. However, this turnaround time is also dependent on how busy the companies house is on that day. If you need it urgently, we also offer a guaranteed same-day formation service (order should be submitted before 15:00). You will receive all the official paperwork in your email as soon as your company is registered at the Companies House.

What information should I provide to form my new company?

First you need to choose a unique company name. In addition, you will have to provide full name, residential address, date of birth, nationality, business occupation, telephone number, town of birth and eye colour for each director/shareholder to form a UK limited company.

Can I use my home as the registered address for my new company?

You can use your home address. However, your home address will be publicly available for anyone to view. That’s why most companies prefer to use our registered office service. This service allows you to hide your home address from internet, marketing agencies and general public besides giving you a prestigious London corporate address.

Are shareholders required for my limited company?

A limited company (limited by shares) must have at least one shareholder. There’s no limit on the maximum number of share-holders. If you are the only shareholder, you’ll own 100% of the company. The price of an individual share can be any value. You can choose a low share value for example, £1 per share.

Do I have to be a UK resident to form a company?

No. You do not have to be a UK resident. But your company should have a UK registered office address.

What documents will I get as proof of my new company formation?

As soon as Companies House approves your company registration, you will receive electronic copies of your Certificate of Incorporation with your unique company number, Memorandum and Articles of Association and Share Certificates for all shareholders. If applicable, printed copies of these documents will be posted to you within 24 hours.

How to choose my new company name?

If you are registering a new private limited company you must choose a unique name for your business. Your company name must usually end with either ‘Limited’ or ‘Ltd’ or the Welsh equivalents (‘Cyfyngedig’ or ‘Cyf’). Your name can not be the same (or similar) to another registered company’s name.

Are directors and secretaries required for my new company?

Your company must have at least one director over the age of 16. Directors are legally responsible for running the company, filing accounts and submitting official paperwork. Another company can also be a director, but at least one of your directors must be a person. You are not legally required to appoint a company secretary for a private limited company, but some companies choose to appoint one.

As a director do I have to publish my home address to the public record?

All Directors must submit their residential address and a service address. Both the addresses can be the same or different. By choosing a different service address, you can keep your home address confidential from the public record. Our directors address service allows the directors to hide their home address from internet, marketing agencies and general public.

We our customers. Our customers us too.

Your process was quick, easy to follow and very professional. Even though we did everything over the phone and chat on your website and email, I have to say it feels like I've met you all in person because of all the care and consideration shown. I can't thank you enough and you absolutely have my 100% recommendation.

Alan Douglas

We used Mint Formations to open our UK based business while we were based in South Africa. The process was incredibly fast and efficient with great communications throughout the process. We would highly recommend anyone use Mint Formations to open their UK business and with help in opening your UK business bank accounts.

Gavin Mannion

Initially, I was very hesitant to register my new limited company from online website. I chose Mint because of their highly professional website. I am glad I did as the staff were very polite, professional and exceptionally helpful. They managed to register my company same day and sent me all the paperwork saving me a lot of time.

Jessica Bingham

I live in Holland. I went to the Companies House website and downloaded the application. There was so much to fill and many questions. I was worried about making mistakes. So, I searched Google and found Mint who does everything online. They have a very easy to use Website with clear instructions. I completed my application in the night and the next my new company was formed. Simple and quick.

Lucas Jansen

I was thinking of using a lawyer or an accountant to form my new UK company. Then I found Mint website online and spoke to Kate. It immediately became clear that I need not waste my money with a lawyer. I made an online application and received all my official paperwork in an email the following day.

James Tomblin

I was not sure how to deal with company formation as this is my first experience in starting my own business. A friend of mine recommended Mint and he was right. They made it really simple for me and answered all my questions with patience and help me set it up. I would recommend Mint to anyone who is starting a new business.
